GLEN OR GLENDA

One Sheet (27" x 41")
Very Fine- Folded
Screen Classics, 1953

This lot is a very rare one sheet to Ed Wood's exploration of transvestism, a personal issue for the director. Starring the director and Dolores Fuller as his girlfriend, and screen legend Bela Lugosi as "the Scientist," who appears randomly throughout the movie, exhorting odd tidbits thrown to the audience. The film has gained a considerable cult following after being named one of the worst films ever.

The poster is entirely intact, with some edge wear in the lower left and right and an additional vertical fold. On the back, small pieces of cellophane tape support the folds and borders.

Glen or Glenda is a 1953 comedy documentary directed by Ed Wood and stars Wood, Bela Lugosi, and Dolores Fuller. The film addresses cross-dressing and transvestism, and is semi-autobiographical, as Wood was a cross-dresser in real life.
