Title: Mask
Post by: RayG on June 13, 2023, 01:28:10 PM
Hey everyone.

Newbie here. Had this mask since the 70s. Bought it at Universal studios in California.  Painted it when I was a kid. I don't know anything other than that. Any Info would be appreciated. Thank you

Ray

Hi Ray.  Did you want to upload an image?  I don't see one here.

Welcome to the UMA, Ray!

You have to upload images to your own webspace and link to them in your messages.

Thanks, guys, for the welcome.  Hate to admit it but I'm not to computer savvy. I will get these up soon.

Looks like a Don Post Thin Frankenstein mask.  Some people don't like that name but that is what it goes by in descriptions. They pop up on Ebay now and then.

Its a vinyl 800 line "Thin Frank".  Appears to be the 1975/76  resculpt.

What color is the vinyl?  And does the stamp have a date?

It was called  "thin" in the old CC ads because there was another totally  different 800 line Frankenstein masks being offered at the same time.  "Wide"

The mask was originally dark green, on the back it says Universal pictures with a circle above that with a C in the middle of the circle. No date.

Thank you all for the info. I appreciate it.

No date is the 75/76 version.    It essentially  the same as the "67" stamped versions.  Just retooled a bit.
