The picture below shows a larger view of these (2) Unused 1955 Tarantula Monster Movie Ad Mat Molds. The ad mats are not dated but they are from the 1955 movie. These are molds in which lead is poured to create a thin metal negative image that is then mounted on a wooden block for printing. Advertising is no longer being made or printed like this.

The ad mats are like miniature 3-D posters and would look nice framed, or you could still use them and make print blocks from them. The print block would have been used to print on movie pages in newspapers, in magazines, or in the movie theater programs. It is made of a thick compressed paper board.

The top admat has a movie scene image of the Tarantula and the bottom one has the movie advertising with the image of a giant Tarantula tearing up a city. There are buildings falling and people running for their lives.There are two inset images. One is of a Scientist in a laboratory and the other is of U.S. Air Force Pilots running for their jets. The two admats are marked as follows:

''TARANTULA'' (2-B)
