I love the art style and lettering on this poster. Especially the upper left area with the spooky house, Dracula, Wolf Man and Frankenstein's monster. Very cool!
There is a story that Universal asked Boris Karloff to pose for a publicity photo of him looking at this poster, and he agreed to do it, saying, "OK, as long as I don't have to watch the movie itself."
Karloff did work with A&C in two movies, though, and AFAIK, he got along well with them.
