Description

Plan 9 from Outer Space (DCA, 1956). One Sheet (27" X 41"). One of the classic films from legendary "bad" director Edward D. Wood Jr., this sci-fi epic is a testament to the ability of sheer willpower to triumph in the face of an utter lack of talent. Wood desperately wanted to make movies and tell stories; unfortunately, he didn't have the budget, ability, or connections to make that happen. Nevertheless, he managed to put together an impressive filmography of pictures that are still being enjoyed to this day, while many of his more "talented" contemporaries have faded into true obscurity. Say what you will about Wood, his pictures are always entertaining, even if it's not in the way he intended. Offered here is perhaps the pinnacle of Ed Wood collectibles, a glorious one sheet for his best-known, and most fondly-remembered, production starring Bela Lugosi, Vampira, Tor Johnson, Lyle Talbot, and Dudley Manlove. It has pinpoint crossfold separation, light edge wear in the right border, and a corner bend in the top right, but is otherwise clean and attractive, a rare and desirable find that should induce some spirited bidding. Very Fine+.
