THE GIRL IN THE KREMLIN (1957) 21293

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA

Original Universal Pictures Mexican Scene Lobby Card (13×17) for the Russell Birdwell mystery, THE GIRL IN THE KREMLIN (1957) starring Lex Barker, Zsa Zsa Gabor, and Jeffrey Stone. The film’s preposterous plot begins in Moscow with nurse Gabor giving Stalin’s double a lethal injection. She then flees with the real Stalin with a lot of money and a nuke. Fast forward a few years to Berlin where another Gabor enlists the help of a former agent (Barker) to help her find her twin sister. It all ends in a Greek monastery with both Gabors battling it out. The film is unbelievably bad—but still a lot of fun, especially if you ever liked Zsa Zsa. This original Mexican scene lobby card is in very good condition.

THE MAN FROM PLANET X (1951) 21100

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA

Original United Artists insert poster (14×36) for the Edgar G. Ulmer sci-fi classic, THE MAN FROM PLANET X (1951) starring Robert Clarke, Margaret Field, and Raymond Bond. Shot in six days on sets left over from JOAN OF ARC (1948), Clarke is a reporter in the foggy moor of a remote Scottish island sent to cover the story of the approach to earth of a previously unknown planet when he unexpectedly confronts a friendly alien from X. The alien’s plea for aid for his freezing planet is met with total obliteration by the British army bazookas. One of the first alien invasion films, it boasts an eerie atmosphere, moody cinematography, fun musical score, and an interesting story. While most of the one sheets – already rare – for this title show heavy use, this one is linen-backed and in very fine plus condition. With its endearing primitive art, the campaign for this film created some of the most charming science fiction movie posters of the 1950s. The insert was originally folded, but has been kept flat for thirty years or more. Fine Plus to Very Fine.
