Description

It Conquered the World (American International, 1956). Folded, Very Fine. One Sheet (27" X 41"). Albert Kallis Artwork.
An alien from Venus arrives on Earth and begins taking control of humans by telepathy, intending to enslave the planet. Scientists and a small group of survivors struggle to resist its growing influence and stop its plan. The film embodies 1950s Cold War paranoia, reflecting fears of infiltration, loss of free will, and the threat of an unstoppable, unseen enemy. Its bleak tone and focus on mind control make it a striking example of sci-fi allegory for societal anxieties during the atomic age. Folded as issued, the poster exhibits slight wrinkling over all, a split in the bottom left border, and some stay tiny spots in the margin. It presents extremely well.
