Mark Hochman, Propstore’s Director of Posters : “Our ‘Horror’ category has always been a personal favourite of mine, being raised on the gothic delights of Hammer and the Universal Monsters, and it has been a real pleasure to bring some of these classic genre titles to market, with many being first-time offerings for Propstore. Our US one-sheet for “Frankenstein meets the Wolfman” and “Son of Frankenstein” from 1946 represents the first time this Japanese B2 has appeared at auction. For the horror fan or collector, a high-quality selection of posters that will have something for everyone. A category that you can really sink your teeth into with so many stand-out lots that we have barely scratched the lid of the coffin with”.
