Description

“Even a man who is pure in heart and says his prayers by night, may become a wolf when the wolfbane blooms and the autumn moon is bright”

One of the best Hollywood horror writers of the period. Compelled to leave Germany after Adolf Hitler and the Nazis took power, Siodmak went to work as a screenwriter in England and then moved to Hollywood in 1937. He got a job at Universal through his director-friend Joe May, helping write the script for May’s The Invisible Man Returns. Because the film went over well, Siodmak says, he fell into the horror/science-fiction groove. AQS on an off-white 6 x 8 sheet, signed “Curt Siodmak, Old South Fork Ranch, Three Rivers California.” Siodmak pens a quote of the poem from The Wolfman: “Even a man who is pure in heart and says his prayers by night, may become a wolf when the wolfbane blooms and the autumn moon is bright.” In fine condition. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RRAuction COA.
