I'm been trying to find this issue of FM for years! # 5 from 1959! I got it! $15 bucks!

That means I'll have EVERY issue of Famous Monsters that features Bela Lugosi on the cover! (there's 8)
The back cover is missing, but I don't care! I'm not one of those "gotta be mint" collectors.
Many congratulations my friend. I know you love your comics and as someone who collects many things I know the joy of finding something you've sought out for a long time. :thumbup:
Thanks! :teddyr:
Just for the heck of it- here are all the FM Belas!

Now I have them all in my grubby claws!
I like the cover on the white one, third down on the left.
My favorite cover would have to be the 1970 Fearbook with Bela giving the side stare.
(Is this a private thread, or one for the expressing of any joyous event?)
Hey- it's for anyone for anything that makes you happy! :smile:
congratulations :cheers:
Today my oldest daughter sent me an email in which, no less than eleven times, she said she loved me. :smile:
My friend and I started a graphic novel today!

Its the history of Myron Fass' Eerie Publications gory comic magazines, and goes into the history of horror comics as well. Great, fascinating reading!
