Amazing vintage “teaser” poster for one of the greatest movies of all time—at least in my book—James Whale’s 1935 Bride of Frankenstein. On auction for a minimum bid of $375,000, but closer to half a million once you factor in the buyer’s premium for the house.

Below, one of the best scenes, when campy Ernest Thesiger, playing campy Doctor Septimus Pretorius, shows Victor Frankenstein his tiny creations. This scene must have knocked audience’s socks off in 1935.

“To a new world of gods and monsters!”
