Back in the 1960's posters of popular entertainers were all the rage. Photo posters, black-light posters, psychedelic posters -- all could be had for about a buck. Included in this trove were monster movie star "personality posters". I still have the King Kong and Dracula posters rolled up somewhere in the sanctum.
This example is up for bid at Heritage Auctions: Boris Karloff as Frankenstein (Personality Posters, 1969). Rolled, Very Fine-. Personality Poster (29" X 41.75").
BONUS!
Another monster poster up for bid is this one: Frankenstein (The W.O.R.K.S. Familiar Faces, 1970s). Rolled, Fine+. Mylar Foil Poster (19.25" X 25").
NOTE: The image on this poster is incorrectly identified on the lot description as Boris Karloff. We monsterologists know that it is really Glenn Strange.
