Description

The Deadly Mantis (Universal International, 1957). One Sheet (27" X 41").
When an Arctic iceberg is opened, it releases a monstrous mantis that devours people and demolishes national monuments. One of the great "Big Bug" movies of the 1950s, this film also boasted some of the best looking posters. This one, with gorgeous art by Ken Sawyer, has had professional touchup to two chips in the right border, a tear in the top left corner, and pinholes in the corners. Fine/Very Fine on Linen.
