Description

Son of Frankenstein (Universal, 1939). Fine/Very Fine. Half Sheet (22" X 28") Style A.
This would be Boris Karloff's third and last appearance in the role as the Monster; at 51 years of age, he was getting too old to deal with the eight hour make-up job by Jack Pierce. The film remains a classic from Universal's horror library and the posters remain very hard to find. This is only the second time we have offered this style A half sheet, the first time we sold one it went for $40,331.00. Basel Rathbone and Bela Lugosi co-star in this dramatic film. Touchup has been applied to fold wear, edge wear with small tears, and to damage above Josephine Hutchinson's upper lip. Touchup has also been applied to the folds at the back of the poster, but the poster has not been backed. Originally folded, the poster will be shipped flat.
