Description
Freaks (Excelsior, R-1949). Three Sheet (41" X 81")."We accept you, one of us!" Cleopatra (Olga Baclanova), the trapeze artist, is made an honorary freak when she marries Hans (Harry Earles), one of the little people. It won't be long before she changes her tune, since she's only marrying him for his inherited fortune. The 1932 film, directed by Tod Browning of Dracula fame, examines the lives of a group of circus sideshow freaks. Shortly after the film's release in 1932, it was pulled from distribution and not seen again for years. Exploitation film distributor Dwain Esper bought the rights, and traveled the country showing the film in the late 1940s. This scarce reissue three sheet comes in two panels as originally produced and has minor edge wear in the bottom border and pinpoint crossfold separations in the bottom horizontal fold. Folded, Very Fine/Near Mint.
