An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Mexican Movie Poster (measures approximately 27" x 37") (Learn More)

La Casa del Terror (literally translates to "House of Terror"), the 1960 Gilberto Martinez Solares Mexican werewolf monster horror comedy (about a man working as a night watchman for a scientist trying to revive the dead, one of which is a mummy who turns out to be a werewolf) starring German Valdez (billed as "Tin-Tan"), Yolanda Varela, Lon Chaney Jr. (playing both the mummy AND the werewolf!), Yerye Beirute, Ortiz De Pinedo, and Consuelo Guerrero de Luna. Note the movie was released in the U.S., but we believe it was solely released under the original Spanish title. We once sold a Spanish language pressbook from the movie, and it shows posters with the original title, but it is clearly a U.S. pressbook, and at the top it says "Los Angeles - San Antonio - Denver - Chicago - New York", so we imagine it played solely in those cities in Spanish under the original title, because they had large Spanish speaking populations. If anyone knows more about this U.S. release, please e-mail us and we will post it here.

Artist: A.M. Cacho
Important Added Info: Note that this is a rare "country of origin" poster for this Mexican movie! Note that this Mexican poster measures approximately 27" x 37" and is folded.

Condition: good. Note that this Mexican poster is fragile! Mexican posters were printed on a paper stock that often ages very poorly, and also darkens. This poster has darkened somewhat and is extremely fragile (but of course, any talented restorer could linenback the poster, after which it would look great). But please do not bid on this poster unless you can accept how fragile it is, or are willing to pay to have it linenbacked. Aside from being fragile and having darkened, the poster is slightly tattered in the borders with some tiny tears and small paper loss, but solely in the blank borders. There are some faint water stains in the center of the top border and across the center of the poster, but they are not very visible from the front. There are many tiny tears in the middle foldline.
