For many years it churned out low budget films of little distinction.But then, inspiration struck in 1955 when they made "The Quatermass Xperiment", which combined science fiction and mature horror (with an X rating, which did not mean the same thing in the U.K. as in the U.S.) and they had found their niche!Two years later they struck gold with their first color film "The Curse of Frankenstein", reviving the classic Universal movie monster, and giving him an all-new look and feel, and they followed that up with "Dracula" (released in the U.S. as "Horror of Dracula") the following year and that paired Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing in the lead roles.Over the next two decades, Hammer dominated the horror film market, reintroducing audiences to many classic monsters (filming them in color for the first time), and they enjoyed great worldwide distribution and considerable financial success.Most movie poster collectors know that ALL movie posters from World War II and before are extremely rare (due to paper shortages and paper drives where most old paper was recycled), but did you know that first release English movie posters from the 1950s and 1960s is almost just as scarce?Over the 36 years I have held over 2 million auctions, I have only auctioned a tiny number of first release posters from the great Hammer horror films of the late 1950s and 1960s, and the few times I did they sold for LOTS of money!NOW we were consigned a remarkable collection of Hammer horror posters, lobby cards, pressbooks, and stills, and it contains a LOT of first release "country of origin" English items, and they all close TODAY, starting at 3 PM CT at https://www.emovieposter.com/agallery/15.html <https://www.emovieposter.com/agallery/15.html>The collection was assembled many years ago (perhaps soon after the movies came out!), but because the owner passed away, we can't find out any more. But we DO know that every one of the 643 posters, lobby cards and more SOLELY from English horror films closing today will have new owners, no ifs, ands, buts, or buyers premiums!If YOU like collecting super rare items that almost no one else owns, THIS is the auction for you. Best of luck to everyone who bids!*
