Item Details
Description
REYNOLD BROWN (American 1917 - 1991)
Monster on the Campus, 1959
Gouache on paper
26 x 20 in.
Signed in pencil, lower right
"Campus terror! Co-ed beauty captive of man-monster! Students victims of terror-beast!"

This poster was prominently featured in the award-winning 1994 PBS documentary, "The Man Who Drew Bug-Eyed Monsters."

Headlines screamed, "Co-ed beauty captive of man Monster." This low budget fifties horror movie tells the story of a college professor who discovers the remains of a prehistoric fish. When blood is accidentally spilled in the remains it turns into a mad Neanderthal killer. It was directed by Jack Arnold ("Creature from the Black Lagoon") and co-starred Joanna Moore.

The copy for this movie poster painting was created on an acetate overlay, and is not glued to the art board.

Please note that this lot contains only the original art, but not the poster (which is shown to in order to document the illustration's final, printed use)
.
From the Fabulous Horror Collection of Thomas C. Rainone

Important notice: Heritage usually auctions material at the rate of 100-110 lots per hour. On some occasions eBay Live bid software or the Internet may not be able to keep up with the pace of the auction. We recommend placing a realistic absentee bid now as insurance to avoid disappointment. Occasionally the auctioneer may eliminate or reject an eBay Live bid, and the auctioneer may also reopen a lot after the close of the eBay live bidding (usually because we missed an audience bid), and may reject your bid even if it shows you as the winning bidder. By bidding via eBay Live, you agree that Heritage may award the lot to another bidder at its sole discretion under the circumstances described above or any other reasonable circumstances. Since eBay bids are not shown to us until we open the lot on the floor, we treat those bids just like floor bids. In most cases the floor responds before the eBay bid is presented to us, due to Internet lag time, so for consistency we have made it a policy that floor bids are always considered first over tie eBay live bids. Also please note that all Heritage lots purchased through eBay Live carry a 22.50% Buyer's Premium with a $9 minimum Buyer's Premium. Please make sure you read the Terms and Conditions before you bid. This lot is being auctioned in conjunction with a live floor auction by Heritage Auctions. All final auction and invoice information will be supplied by Heritage Auctions, and all other information should be considered preliminary. Lot:66059

Winning Notification and Billing: After the FINAL session in this auction is complete, Heritage will send e-mail and snail mail invoices. This process normally takes several days.

Second Chance Offers: Heritage does not make Second Chance Offers. Once our auction ends, if you receive a Second Chance Offer to buy this item DO NOT accept the offer. Please forward any Second Chance offer emails received on one of our auctions to eBay's Safe Harbor Department.
