THE BODY SNATCHER

One Sheet (27" x 41")
Very Fine- on Linen; Artwork by William Rose
RKO, 1945

This vibrant copy was expertly restored onto linen, exhibiting minimal wear. A V-shaped pull was noted on Karloff's right hand thumb, yet the paper remained intact. There were a few border pulls resulting in minor paper loss. Additionally, there was sporadic airbrush work along the borders and some touch-ups on fold wear.

Boris Karloff and Bela Lugosi team up again in this RKO horror classic, which is loosely inspired by a tale from Robert Louis Stevenson. Val Lewton, known for producing cult classics like Cat People and I Walked with a Zombie, collaborated on the screenplay, with Robert Wise at the helm as director.
