MAN FROM PLANET X, THE (1951) 18436 Rare 20x60 Door Panel Poster with Alien

Original Door Panel (20x60) Linen Backed Alien Depicted

United Artist PIctures Original U.S. 20x60 Door Panel. This rare door panel poster is linen backed and was used in a theater. The poster has been restored and we regard it in fine condition. The film is 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. Door panel posters are typically hard to find, and while this poster is produced in duotone, the alien is pictured. A very charming poster with a large footprint.
