Description
Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein (Universal International, 1948). Three Sheet (41" X 81").
Comedy team Bud Abbot and Lou Costello made this widely successful comeback film after their careers floundered in the post-war years. This moneymaker was a hit and featured some of Universal Studios' horror stars in the roles they originally played. Bela Lugosi reprises his role as Count Dracula, Lon Chaney Jr. plays the Wolf Man, and Glenn Strange is Frankenstein's Monster. This vehicle would lead A&C into twelve more feature films, many starring the Universal monsters. We have had the privilege of offering two other copies of this scarce and very desirable three sheet, but this is the only unrestored copy we have had! This poster has a piece missing in the upper right corner, minor crossfold separation, and some small amount of fold separation. The poster's colors are as bright as they were on the day it was printed. It displays beautifully with only minor wear and no restoration. Very Fine-.
