A 4D Man Screen-Used Laboratory Sign Universal Pictures, 1959. Painted wooden sign with letters in black paint, inscribed, 'Fairview Research Center,' with original penciled letters and lines still visible, with 2 metal mounting hooks affixed to back with screws. The sign can be seen in the first few minutes of the film when the character of Tony Nelson, played by James Congdon, is interrogated outside of the research center where his brother, Scott, works as a scientist. It is also featured in other scenes showing the fenced-in facility. Much of the action takes place inside the research center, where Scott, played by Robert Lansing, is a frustrated scientist who exacts his revenge on others by abusing Tony's invention, an amplifier which allows a person to enter into a 4th dimensional state. Actress and former Miss America Lee Meriwether co-stars. Accompanied by a DVD of the film and a snapshot of the sign as seen in the film. 12 x 42 1/4 x 3/4 in.
