An Original Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Half-Sheet Movie Poster (1/2sh; measures 22" x 28" [56 x 71 cm]) (Learn More) Jules Verne's Mysterious Island, the 1961 Cy Endfield English/U.S. science fiction (sci-fi) fantasy adventure thriller ("A world beyond imagination!"; "Adventure beyond belief!"; "They plunged into a world of incredible dangers and mysterious forces!"; with "Visual Effects Created by Ray Harryhausen"; "In SuperDynamation"; "Based on the Jules Verne Novel"; about prisoners of war, captured by Confederates during the Civil War, that escape to an uncharted South Pacific island via hot-air balloon!) starring Michael Craig, Joan Greenwood, Michael Callan, Gary Merrill, Beth Rogan, and Herbert Lom ("as Captain Nemo"). Note that this movie is well regarded today, but the producers were having difficulty getting financing for it, because they did not think it would do well at the box office! But Disney had a big success with "Swiss Family Robinson" the year before, which was a very similar movie to this one, and that enabled the producers of this movie to get financing! 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 this poster has never been folded! Some pre-1970 half-sheet posters were folded twice horizontally at the poster exchange, while some were not. It can be difficult to find an unfolded example of many pre-1970 half-sheet posters (note that most post-1970 half-sheets were NOT folded, so they are pretty much only found unfolded, and therefore this does not apply to those half-sheets). Condition: good to very good. There are some creases scattered throughout the poster and there are a few 1 1/2" and smaller tears around the edges (some repaired with tape from the back).
