An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Window Card Movie Poster (WC; measures 14" x 18" [36 x 46 cm]) (Learn More)

Phantom of the Rue Morgue, the 1954 Roy Del Ruth 3-D (3D; 3-Dimension) monster horror thriller ("Can it be Human?"; "It mauls... It rips... It vanishes! A mammoth monstrous man -or- creature rising out of the depths beneath the city!"; "See It -- But Don't Reveal It! Let your friends feel for themselves the Phantom's full impact!"; "Screendom's most amazing creature holds you in the grip of the world's greatest shock-and-suspense story sensation!"; "The New Warner Bros. Sensation"; "3 Dimension and WarnerColor"; "From Edgar Allan Poe's 'Murders in the Rue Morgue'") starring Karl Malden, Claude Dauphin, Patricia Medina, Steve Forrest, Anthony Caruso, Dolores Dorn, and Charles Gemora (as Sultan the Gorilla; and amazingly, he had earlier this role when the movie was first by Universal in 1932, 22 years earlier!). Note that starting in 1929 and continuing into the 1940s, Charles Gemora played gorillas in many movies, likely because he owned a gorilla suit, and could do a somewhat convincing job portraying a gorilla. Just a few years later, Ray 'Crash' Corrigan would also start playing gorillas, and no doubt they competed for roles in every movie requiring a gorilla!

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that this movie was made in 3-D, and the other posters have "3 DIMENSIONS" in large letters, but this window card does not. We don't know if they solely made one window card for use with both 2-D and 3-D, or if there was a 3-D window card (this one is not marked either way). If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Also note that the window card was folded across the center at one time. Because the foldline is such that it has diminished over time, we don't want to re-fold the window card prior to mailing, because we believe that re-folding the window card would lessen its condition and we will sent it in a large flat package (we never roll window cards into a tube). If you specifically request it, we will re-fold this window card, but you will not be able to return it.

Condition: good.
