Date Sold 10/22/2017Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Movie Trade Ad (measures 8 1/2" x 11" [22 x 28 cm]; 2 pages) (Learn More) The Thing with Two Heads, the 1972 Lee Frost horror science fiction (sci-fi) comedy (about an interracial transplant; "They transplanted a white bigot's head on a soul brother's body!"; "The doctor blew it - the most fantastic medical experiment of the age. And now, with the fights, the Fuzz, the chicks and the choppers ...Man, they're really in deeeeep trouble!"; "The doctor blew it - He transplanted a White Bigot's Head on a Soul Brother's Body!"; "Story by Lee Frost & Wes Bishop"; the comedy portion of this movie may not have been intentional) starring Ray Milland, Roosevelt Grier (billed as "'Rosey' Grier"), Don Marshall, Roger Perry, Kathrine Baumann (billed as "Kathy Baumann"), and Chelsea Brown ("as Lila"). Is it just me, or does it seem incredibly sad that Ray Milland, a wonderful Academy Award-winning actor, had to spend the entire making of this movie in a really bizarre body suit in incredibly close quarters with a huge ex-football player? I can't imagine that making this movie was fun at all, but watching it certainly is (in a kind of twisted way)! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: From the 1920s on, studios would create elaborate trade ads, often in full color, and often using the finest artists of the day. They would run these ads in their studio yearbooks and exhibitor magazines, and they would also print those trade ads separately and mail them individually to theater owners, trying to get them to book that specific movie. Sometimes those books and magazines are separated and the ads, which now greatly resemble the individually printed trade ads, are sold individually. The trade ad offered here was printed individually. It can be framed and displayed (but many trade ads have different images on each side, so one must choose which side to display if it is framed!). Condition: very good to fine. Learn More about condition grades
