War of the Worlds Window Card Movie Poster, 1953

"The War of the Worlds", 1953
Original Vintage Movie Poster Window Card

Maybe in the top five of the most important Sci-Fi movies of all time, “War of the Worlds” is unquestionably an icon in the Sci-Fi movie category.   This Window card is not only stunning in its artwork and design but a true piece of Hollywood history.  The first we have ever acquired.

The War of the Worlds (Paramount, 1953). Window Card (14" X 18.25").
With the iconic artwork of the alien hand reaching down from the heavens, this window card is one of the prize items for serious sci-fi fans. H.G. Wells' brilliant 1898 novel is the basis for this excellent film directed by Byron Haskin and featuring the fantastic, Academy Award winning special effects of George Pal. Gene Barry, Ann Robinson, and Les Tremayne co-star, with Cedric Hardwicke providing the voice over commentary. The card has been trimmed by 3.75" in the top blank imprint area (as have most window cards), pinholes in the borders, and a horizontal crease. That said, a stunning and historical piece of Hollywood history!
