Vintage Horror Movie

The Blob, 1958

Original Vintage Horror Movie TYPE 1 Photo

Rare Vintage Type 1 photos. 

Steve McQueen’s first starring role in this campy Horror Classic.   Unfortunately the studio didn’t put much into the advertising campaign and material like the movie posters, as none of them showed McQueen, but just a tacky Blob swallowing part of the town.      Not until these striking vintage Type I photos appeared in the movie theater lobbies did audiences get introduced to Steve McQueen.    

Gorgeous sepia patina toned photos are just stunning.  The first we have ever seen.      Very good condition with age related sepia toning.

Steve McQueen stars in his motion picture debut as a teenager who must do battle with a gelatinous monster that continues to grow as it consumes more and more people. 

Steve McQueen (credited here as Steven, the last time that would occur) starred in this sci-fi/horror film from 1958, in which a strange gelatinous lifeform from another planet lands in a small town, and proceeds to wreak havoc while continuously growing. At the time McQueen was offered either $2500 or 10% of the profit, and opted for the $2500 thinking the film wasn't going to be successful - end result, the movie grossed over $4 million.
