Important Added Info: Note that this item contains some nudity, so we have placed a white bar over those areas for those who are bothered by such images. Of course, the actual item does not have the white bars.

Also note that this is one of a truly incredible group of 15 horror stills we were just consigned, which we are auctioning in 15 separate auctions! They were assembled by a very longtime collector in the 1960s, and he has kept them all these years! Several of them are truly "as good as it gets", and they are all first release stills, including ones from Dracula, Frankenstein, Bride of Frankenstein, and more! This is an incredible opportunity to purchase one or more of these wonderful stills, and it may be many years before we ever offer some or any of them again!

Condition: very good to fine.
