Snow Globe...Water Globe...Monsters In A Bottle...whatever...
1970-80s Universal Studios Tour souvenier (not sure exact year)...Made In Hong Kong...very cool design, and for whatever reason, you don't see many of them. I assume available one season, because of scarcity. Featuring "Frank Sinatra" Dracula.

Way cool item.
My fave is Mummy.
But I don't get the Sinatra joke...
I don't know...the Dracula looks like an older Sinatra to me (and looks like Frank's toupe he's wearing).
Love surprises like this! Never seen or heard of one before. Thanks for sharing Bob!

He's a dead ringer for old red eyes!
Oh I see it now..
So Bob? Why do I suddenly get a vision of you as an old man looking into this snow globe and muttering "Roseblood" before letting it drop to the floor with a final gasp?

I love the Drac image. A true gem of a piece. Thanks Bob.
Very Nice. ;D
I have seen one before but I don't have one. Maybe someday. Very cool!
That's really cool and very old school beautiful! I've never seen it before.
I used to love that show, and still have a souvenier pin from that show. It had to deal with Count Dracula battling the Hulk. I said I loved the show, not that it wasn't stupid. The stage set looked great., and lot's of atmosphere.

That's actually a line uttered by Count Dracula in Kim Newman's "Dracula Cha Cha Cha: Anno Dracula 1959." I think the exact quote might be, "Rose's blood...."

There IS isn't there? I had forgotten about that. That was a great series of books. I miss when Kim Newman was still a novelist. I thought "The Quorom" was one of the best "Deal with the Devil" stories of the last 50 years.
Count-- didn't Orson Welles even make an appearance in "Judgment of Tears: Anno Dracula"? (That was the title I read it under)
Great books... I should revisit them.
