Description

This Island Earth (Universal International, 1955). Insert (14" X 36").
Universal took the plunge and made a huge commitment to this sci-fi epic by making the film using the expensive color process. As the planet of Metaluna is on the brink of self-destruction, an alien lands on Earth with the intention of taking over our world. The special effects on this picture were far better than in most of the films at the time, and the Metaluna mutants were some of the most terrifying aliens created for motion pictures. This insert has wear on the folds, pinholes and minor chips in the corners, and tiny tears along the edges. Folded, Fine.
