Title: HAPPY! HAPPY! JOY! JOY!
Post by: RCMerchant on February 28, 2024, 11:52:26 AM
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:

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?)

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