Memorabilia from Forbidden Planet makes for some of the most collectible movie items out here.
If I had an original release US poster I would be a rich man. But I have to make do with this rather less valuable 60s re-release Spanish herald (plus my Australian poster for The Invisible Boy – not a sequel but also featuring a great image of Robby The Robot).
The movie is one of the classics of 50s sci-fi, loosely based on Shakespeare’s The Tempest and, curiously, starring a pre-Naked Gun Leslie Nielsen.
I have been undecided as to whether to frame or sell the herald. After some deliberation, its available to buy here.
