20 Million Miles to Earth (Columbia, 1957). Half
<B>20 Million Miles to Earth (Columbia, 1957).</B></I> Half Sheet (22" X 28") Style A. A classic from the mind of legendary animator Ray Harryhausen, this movie tells the tale of a "strange visitor from another planet," the Ymir, that comes to Earth aboard a returning Venus probe and quickly grows to enormous size. The misunderstood monster soon threatens to destroy the city of Rome, Italy (Rome was chosen as the scene of destruction as Harryhausen had always wanted to visit the fabled city, but couldn't afford to travel there on his own)! One of Harryhausen's most popular and fondly-remembered creatures, the Ymir evokes as much sympathy as he does terror in audiences, a tribute to the genius of Harryhausen. This incredible half sheet shows some slight edge wear, but no other flaws of note, making it a wonderful opportunity for the dedicated sci-fi collector! Rolled, Very Fine/Near Mint.*****<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Flat Material, Large (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
