Missing 1950's and 1960's Horror & Sci-FI daybill images.
Three films that come under the category of Horror or Sci-Fi that no daybill images appear to have surfaced are --
Jack The Ripper ( 1959 version ) ( Blake )
Valley Of The Dragons ( 1961 ) ( Columbia )
Carnival of Souls ( 1962 ) Cult film that I'm surprised hasn't surfaced. It was screened as a double bill in Sydney in the 1960's with The Devi'ls Messenger which starred Lon Chaney which has been sighted. Both films were distributed in Australia by RFD ( Regent Film Distributors ).
I'm interested in hearing from anyone who has daybills for any of these titles or has ever sighted them.
One title that was hard to find turned up a few years ago. It was the 1960 Paramount release Blood And Roses.I'm sure the three titles i
I'm inquiring about are out there somewhere.
Does anyone else like to list any titles that appear missing?

Have you asked Phil Edwards? He hasn't been in the forum game for a while unfortunately.
Haven't contacted Phil Edwards at this stage.
Why aren't the Horror & Sci-Fi collectors responding? I thought there were a lot our there.

Might also want to try Ari. But of course that will be like cosplaying Catch Me If You Can right now
Thanks to Matt mentioning this title in another thread I will add another daybill title to this discussion.
Gigantis, The Fire Monster ( Japan 1955, USA 1959 & Australia 1960 ( Warner Bros )
Anyone have an image to share ?

Thanks Rick for the rare image. I'm thinking the film must have been very mild seeing the For General Exhibition rating is on it. Apparently it couldn't even scare children.

Australian newspaper advertisement for Captive women.
List of found images to date.
Gigantis, The Fire Monster ( supplied by Rick ) ( image on Missing daybills thread }

Another title to add to our list -
The Last Man On Earth ( 1964 ) ) Banned in Australia in 1964 but passed for exhibition in 1972 ( CUC Films Australia )
Still another one raised by Sven on another thread -
Man With The X-Ray Eyes ( aka X ) Most likely banned in Australia originally but was screened in Australia in 1972 and possibly even earlier.
Still another - Varan The Unbelievable ( 1962 )
And also - Panic In Year Zero ( 1962 )
The great horror poster god says if you mean this film then yes, they exist:
