A 1938 Re-release Vintage 2 3/4" x 4 1/2" [7 x 11 cm] Photo (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. Important Added Info: Note that this photo is undated, but because all of the photos it was found with are from the late 1930s and very early 1940s, we think it is very likely that it is from the 1938 re-release. Also note that in October and November of 2017, we auctioned a wonderful collection of around 60 photos (most measured 3.5x5.25, but some measured slightly smaller) that were taken by a man who worked at a large movie theater in the late 1930s and early 1940s. He created wonderful theater fronts and homemade posters (some that were displayed outside the theater and some inside the theater), and after he finished making his displays, he would take a picture of each and then he put them in a scrapbook. Collectors rightfully bid aggressively on these photos, and the best of them auctioned for hundreds of dollars each! Now we are offering another 32 photos from this amazing scrapbook, and after this, there will just be a few bulk lots of the remaining photos (either because they are from much lesser movies or are in lesser condition). So this is the last chance to acquire these very rare to find photos of original theater fronts and local theater displays from this time period. Each of the 32 photos is in a separate auction with this paragraph on them. Condition: good to very good. There are tiny yellow pieces of tape in each blank corner, with the one in the top left corner slightly extending into the edge of the image (see our images). Learn More about condition grades
