Drums of Fu Manchu (Republic, 1940). One Sheet (27 X 41) Chapter 1-- Fu Manchu Strikes. , Author Sax Rohmer created one of the most evil and diabolical villains to ever grace the screen with Dr. Fu Manchu; a Chinese genius who plots to rid China of Western imperialists through torture and assassination. Opposing Fu Manchu was the British policeman Nayland Smith and his assistant, Dr. Petrie. The characters were very similar in concept to those created by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle; Fu Manchu similar to Professor Moriarty, Smith similar to Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Petrie similar to Dr. Watson. Regardless of the comparisons, the characters stood on their own merits and were featured in a series of successful novels and films. This was the only serial to feature the evil genius and is widely considered to be one of Republics most exciting. This Chapter One sheet is the only All Art one sheet using a different design than the other chapters which have a photo inset from the chapter itself and the same artwork. The one sheet offered here has had minor airbrushing to the borders, to the Republic logo in the lower left corner, and to the letters er in the lower right of chapters. Very Fine- on Linen.
