I should have the pressbook.. but I can't imagine it would be there
seeing as it was the non-US poster
it is of course, the best poster on this title - even though by 50s
posters standard, it really is tame.

The only time I've ever seen the image is in the Borst GRAVEN IMAGES
book. The image is similar to a lot of the print ads that came out
for the film, and for this Fifties monster kid, the "Wow!" factor is
off the charts (unfortunately, so is the "heart attack" factor when
I saw the price tag an hour before this gem hit the finish line. How
will it end?!?). Never seen the press book for this film, so I don't
know if this image was included. Anyone? I have have been collecting
for 45 years and have never actually held one of these in my grubby
hands. Definitely beats the crap out of the disappointing U.S,
paper. It's kinda like the INVASION OF THE BODY SNATCHERS "spotlight
dance" B style half sheet; a much cooler but rarely-seen version of
a classic title. Its insane scarcity would account for the high
price tag; warranted, in this case. I dropped out of the running at
around a grand; I knew it was gonna get too rich for this
middle-class boy's blood, and, boy, was I right.....

Never seen this image before, Jeff. Really. In 35+ years of
collecting, I never seen this image. (I know: everyone else has
seen it 1000s of times and I'm out to lunch). Wonder if this poster
is displayed in the pressbook. Anyone?
And I it has plenty of WOW Factor, imho. UBER-high priced, though.
Here's your link using Tiny Url:

Thanks for sharing! Good luck if you bid.

hi fellow mopo'ers,
i just saw this item on ebay... does this price seem right for this
poster? it caught my eye as the photography and general layout of the
imagery look just OK, in my opinion. the poster also lacks any real
color or WOW factor.
again, asking this, as uninformed with regard to this poster for this
title.
thanks, and look forward to any thoughts here on the forum.
