A Vintage Unfolded Classic Movie Poster Art, Inc. Commercial Poster (made to be sold directly to the public; measures 24" x 36") (Learn More) Frankenstein, the classic 1931 James Whale Universal monster horror thriller ("The monster that terrorized the world!"; "The Man Who Made a Monster"; "Warning! The monster is loose!"; "Based upon the Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley Story"; "Adapted by John L. Balderston from the play by Peggy Webling"; the first of the Universal "Frankenstein" movies, and regarded as one of the finer movies of any genre, in large part due to the marvelous acting of Boris Karloff, and the marvelous direction of James Whale!) starring Colin Clive (as Dr. Herbert V. Frankenstein), Boris Karloff (as the Frankenstein monster), Edward Van Sloan, Fredric Kerr, Mae Clarke, Dwight Frye (extremely memorable as Fritz), and John Boles 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 WE NORMALLY NEVER SELL REPRODUCTIONS OF ANY KIND, BUT WE ARE MAKING AN EXCEPTION FOR THIS POSTER, AND ONE OTHER THAT WE HAVE IN A SEPARATE AUCTION ("King Kong"). Why? Because these sorts of reproductions are commonly sold to unknowing people at flea markets as originals, and every week, we get phone calls from people who think they have "struck it rich" because they just bought an original "Frankenstein" or "King Kong" one-sheet! In the case of this poster, because it has a 1993 copyright in the bottom border, an unscrupulous seller would trim off that information before attempting to cheat someone while selling the poster. This poster was created by Barry Vilkin in 1993 (Vilkin helped launch the modern movie poster collecting hobby in 1989 when he launched "Camden House Auctions" in Beverly Hills, California!). Condition: very good to fine. Because the poster is a reproduction, and because it was reproduced from an original one-sheet, and not from the original art, there are reproduced flaws in the poster, but they are in the printing, and not in this reproduction poster!
