Original 1960 'The Time Machine' One-Sheet Movie Poster

This is an original theater release one-sheet poster for the 1960 science fiction classic 'The Time Machine,' produced by George Pal and released by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. The poster features dynamic mid-century illustrations in a vibrant palette of reds, mustard yellows, and muted teals. The central imagery depicts the subterranean Morlocks with glowing yellow eyes, Rod Taylor and Yvette Mimieux fleeing across a futuristic landscape, and stylized title typography. The poster includes billing for stars Rod Taylor, Alan Young, and Yvette Mimieux, along with the tagline 'You will ORBIT into the fantastic future!' At the bottom edge, National Screen Service (NSS) information is visible, specifically the code '60/210' (though slightly obscured) and 'MP1004', which helps authenticate its 1960 origin. The poster is housed in a simple black frame. Regarding condition, several horizontal and vertical fold lines are visible, consistent with how posters were shipped to cinemas at the time. There is noticeable foxing, yellowing, and minor staining along the top and bottom white margins. Some light rippling indicates the paper has reacted to humidity over time. There are also visible small staple holes or pinholes near the corners and edges from theater display. Overall, the colors remain punchy and the primary artwork is well-preserved, showcasing the classic 'Metrocolor' aesthetic of the early 1960s.
