Description
How to Make a Monster (American International, 1958). Half Sheet (22" X 28"). An amusingly metatextual film, this is the story of Pete (Robert H. Harris), a long-time make-up artist for American International, who is unceremoniously sacked from his position. His mind now unhinged, he decides to exact revenge on the studio that wronged him, by hypnotizing a pair of actors into believing that they are the monsters they portrayed in films, and urging them to commit a string of gruesome murders on the lot. Gary Clarke plays the "Teenage Werewolf," while Gary Conway is the "Teenage Frankenstein," reprising the role he played in 1957's I Was a Teenage Frankenstein, his film debut. This eye-catching half sheet has an extra crease in the bottom border, a scuff in the left side, light fold wear, and light smudging in the left border, but is otherwise extremely clean and attractive. Folded, Very Fine.Heritage Auctions provides detailed information when available but strongly encourages in-person inspection.
