An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Insert Movie Poster (measures 14" x 36" [36 x 91 cm]) (Learn More) Abbott and Costello Meet the Killer, Boris Karloff, the 1949 Charles Barton screwball horror comedy ("More Ghoulish glee... Than when they met Frankenstein!"; "Help") starring Bud Abbott, Lou Costello (Abbott and Costello), Boris Karloff, Lenore Aubert, and Gar Moore. Note that this movie was originally titled "Easy Does It", and it was intended to be a Bob Hope comedy! However, the movie "Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein" had just come out and was a huge hit, and Universal reworked the script for Abbott & Costello, and changed the title to "Abbott and Costello Meet the Killers"! In that script, the lead villain was a FEMALE character named "Madame Switzer"! Five days before shooting began, Boris Karloff was hired, and the character became a swami, and the title of the movie was changed yet again, to include Boris Karloff's name!

Important Added Info: Note that this poster was folded at one time, and the folds have not diminished, so depending on what the buyer purchases with this poster, it can either be re-folded and sent in a flat package or it can be left unfolded and sent rolled in a tube (it will be the choice of the buyer of the poster, and they should notify us after they win to tell us which they want us to do). Condition: very good. The poster has three faint additional horizontal folds in between the regular ones. It has some pinholes and creases around the edges, with a pinhole near the center of the image background. Learn More about condition grades
