An Original Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Half-Sheet Movie Poster (1/2sh; measures 22" x 28" [56 x 71 cm]) (Learn More) Terror From the Year 5,000, the 1958 Robert J. Gurney Jr. AIP science fiction (sci-fi) time travel horror thriller ("From time unborn... A hideous she-thing!"; "Produced, Directed and Written by Robert J. Gurney"; more intelligent and literate than you might expect; scientists invent a "time machine" that allows them to send objects to the future; they discover that those future creatures are taking the objects they are sent and replacing them with future objects; but then a badly scarred woman from the future travels to the present and scares every little kid who saw this movie back in 1958!) starring Joyce Holden, Ward Costello, Frederic Downs, John Stratton, and Salome Jens (in the title role as the she-thing!). Note that this movie may be the first one to ever show an actual "time machine" (in the modern sense), and the movie "The Terminator" borrows some of the plot of this movie! 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 there is considerable confusion over who created the art for this poster. Some say it is by Reynold Brown and others say it is by Albert Kallis. If anyone has definitive evidence as to who created the art, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Also note that this poster has never been machine folded! Some pre-1970 half-sheet posters were machine 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 machine folded, so they are pretty much only found unfolded, and therefore this does not apply to those half-sheets). Condition: good to very good. The poster was never folded. It has a tear in the right edge, and that tear is repaired with tape from the back and it and some small pinholes at lower right have been touched up with marker in the black background. It has a horizontal line of slight discoloration on back but it has little or no effect on the front, but there are some drip stains at lower right (under and above the left half of the "5,000" of the title.) It has some pinholes around the edges (partially repaired with tape from the back) and there is some slight discoloration in portions of the borders. Despite these defects the poster could certainly be displayed as is, but after a pretty simple paperbacking with some restoration the poster will display really well.
