An Original Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Half-Sheet Movie Poster (1/2sh; measures 22" x 28" [56 x 71 cm]) (Learn More) The Bride and the Beast, the 1958 Adrian Weiss jungle horror thriller ("Human mate for jungle brutes!"; "A Human mate for gargantuan brutes!"; "Please Don't Tell What Happens To The Bride!"; "Out of the night comes the spine-chilling mating call of the monster gorillas... And a human bride becomes the enslaved victim of jungle brutes!"; "Enslaved by gargantuan monsters of the jungle!"; "See It At Your Own Risk!"; "But don't tell what happens to the bride!"; "Can you take it? Will your heart and nerves stand the shocks of the strangest of all horrors?" "Screenplay by Edward D. Wood Jr.") starring Lance Fuller, Charlotte Austin, Johnny Roth, William Justine, Jeanne Gerson, and Ray Corrigan (uncredited as "Spanky the wife-stealing gorilla"!). Note that Crash Corrigan made a REALLY wise investment in the 1930s, when he bought a "gorilla suit". In many of the movies in the 1940s where there is a fake gorilla, it is played by Crash Corrigan, no doubt because he could supply the suit! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this poster has never been folded! Some pre-1970 half-sheet posters were folded twice horizontally at the poster exchange, while some were not. It can be difficult to find an unfolded example of many pre-1970 half-sheet posters (note that most post-1970 half-sheets were NOT folded, so they are pretty much only found unfolded, and therefore this does not apply to those half-sheets). Condition: good. There is a tape stain in the woman's image at right and there is a small area of tape staining and surface paper loss at lower center in the area of her knees in the artwork and in the bottom of the "BE" in "BEAST" in the title area at lower right. There is some paper loss in the left of the top edge and there are a few 2" and smaller tears around the edges of the poster (mostly in the blank borders). There are minor creases and smudges scattered throughout the poster (more so around the edges). Other than the tape stains and small areas of surface paper loss mentioned above, the poster's defects are mostly around the edges and after restoration by a top professional, or talented amateur, the poster will surely display well!
