An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Insert Movie Poster (measures 14" x 36" [36 x 91 cm]) (Learn More) Gildersleeve's Ghost, the 1944 Gordon Douglas science fiction (sci-fi) fantasy horror comedy ("Weird... Wild-Eyed... and What Fun"; "A haunted house-ful of goofy, ghostly guffaws with Gildy in the mad-cap middle!"; "You'll SCREAM with laughter!"; "Everything from spooks to nuts! As Gildy and a giant gorilla tussle over a buxom blonde who vanishes..just like that!"; "EERIE HILARITY -- when a pair of spooks and a giant gorilla try to pal up with Throcky!"; "- with the Prince of Pomposity at his befuddled best... As he pits his wits against a giant gorilla, a vanishing Venus and a pair of goofy spooks!"; based on the hit radio show, "The Great Gildersleeve") starring Harold Peary (in the title role as Throckmorton P. Gildersleeve, and also as the ghosts of two of his ancestors!), Marion Martin, Richard LeGrand, Amelita Ward, Freddie Mercer, Margie Stewart, Lillian Randolph, Nick Stewart, and Charles Gemora (as the gorilla!). 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!
