Wow. Just wow. As a collector of fine horror movie memorabilia, my tongue has been dragging on the floor since the second I set eyes on this incredibly rare piece of artwork in promotion of Universal’s original Dracula.
According to THR a trove of rare movie posters from the early ’30s discovered in Berwick, Pennsylvania fetched $503,000 at an auction conducted by Heritage Auctions.
The most coveted item in the collection was a rare 1931 one-sheet from Dracula, just one of four known copies in existence, which fetched $143,400, slightly below its initial estimate of $200,000.
I’d kill for even a reproduction of this one. Someone? Anyone? Get to work, people! My credit card is HOT!
