Original RKO Lobby Card (11×14) for Christian Nyby’s THE THING FROM ANOTHER WORLD (1951) starring Margaret Sheridan, Kenneth Tobey, Edward Franz, and James Arness. The 1950s was an era full of fear and wonder about the future, outer space, alien invasions and the nuclear age. THE THING FROM ANOTHER WORLD speculates that an alien spacecraft had crash landed in the Arctic. Once discovered and unearthed, a creature emerges (played by GUNSMOKE’S James Arness) threatening military personnel at a nearby science camp. This taut, effective film is widely believed to have been primarily directed by producer Howard Hawks. THE THING began the cycle of science-fiction films of the era and material on this highly-collected genre has proven to be among the most valued in the hobby to this day. The lobby card is in Near Mint condition. An excellent example.
