Description

Forbidden Planet (MGM, 1956). One Sheet (27" X 41").
Loosely based on The Tempest by William Shakespeare, this is one of the seminal science fiction films of the 1950s. Not surprisingly, the poster is one of the most desirable in the entire science fiction collecting field, prized for its incredible artwork and its association with a truly classic film. This particular example had crossfold separations and pinholes in the top corners, but professional restoration has rendered these slight flaws virtually invisible. If you've always wanted a great copy of this outstanding poster, bid on this beauty today! From the collection of Wade Williams. Very Fine on Linen.
