Recently I got this envelope from it's original owner. It was mailed to him in 1963. Guess what was inside.

Also inside were four postcards with photo's from the Movieland Wax Museum in Buena Park. Here's the first one...

And here's the fourth one. Who knows what else they stuffed in the envelopes to subscribers in the 1960's.

How'd you talk Mark out of such a treasure?

That was the same year he published the 1st issue of PHOTON!  :)

He listed it on e-bay. I think in the listing he said he was just getting rid of some old stuff. I didn't know who the seller was when I won it because he didn't include the envelope in the auction , just the postcards. So, when i received it in the mail and saw the envelope it was a surprise.

Guess he doesn't want the relatives to have to deal with all his stuff when he croaks.  ;D

From the picture it looks like Drac is like:
"Screw the main course, tonight we start with dessert!"

In this one, Frank looks like he's striking his Superman pose with his arm position and that curtain hanging off his shoulder that looks like a cape!
