First edition Frankenstein signed by Mary Shelley, First Edition Dracula signed by Bela Lugosi, Boris Karloff, and others.

Cool stuff that makes me wish I was wealthy enough to participate.

It is sad Forry's collection never made it into a museum, like he always hoped it would.

The question would be:  who else could possibly give as intelligent and entertaining a tour of the collection as Forry himself?

He was definitly one of a kind. I read Famous Monsters from 1970 until about 1978. I had every issue from that span. Forry was cool...a grown up who liked the same stuff I did. He was forever young.

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
    • Osmosis: os·mo·sis (oz-mo'sis, os-) n., 1. When a bird eats something.
