The Incredible Shrinking Man
Universal City, CA: Universal Pictures, 1957. Collection of four striking vintage photographs from the 1957 US film. The stills demonstrate the practical effects and extraordinary sets constructed in order to make the picture—at a time when the special effects needed to visualize the world of a man reduced to being only a few inches were essentially nonexistent.
A landmark science fiction film, adapted by Richard Matheson from his own 1956 novel, about a man who begins shrinking after being exposed to a strange mist.
8 x 10 inches. Fine condition, with scene descriptions tipped on to the verso of eight of the nine stills.
National Film Registry.
