Two new ones plus a few I had updated so they now have the straightened logos on the side covers like their VHS counterparts.

We not only get more, we get better!

Thanks for all of these.

Quick question. Does anyone here happen to have the French BD for FMWM?? I found this screen grab on a DVD site which shows the VHS artwork from the disc's photo gallery. It looks a bit less cropped than the one I posted. Question is if anyone here owns that BD any chance you can post a larger grab of this frame??? Thank you!

Two more. Updated Son of Frankenstein and a newbie, The Invisible Woman.

A message to anyone who gets the new French BD for The Mummy's Hand. If there's a still gallery on the disc could you please check to see if the VHS artwork is there and if possible please share a frame grab of it?? Some of the still galleries on the French BDs feature the VHS artworks which is why I'm asking.

These covers are absolutely gorgeous. Just a reminder of how those VHS covers were miles ahead of any Universal DVD releases. I might consider replacing the singles that I do have.

Now I'm wanting to create single burned DVDs for all of the sequels!

An 'uncropped' Frankenstein meets Wolf Man taken from a frame grab from the French BD (Thank you eegah over at CHFB for providing this). I put uncropped in quotes because this appears to be an uncropped copy of a crop since the actual VHS cover reveals more image than this image.

I was looking at some of the minor Universal horrors that were issued on VHS around this time.  Not part of the "Classic Collection", they were issued separately as "Horror Classics".



I like the VHS artwork for "Night Monster" better than what followed later.


Here is an example of the VHS box for "The Strange Door":



And what looks to be the original artwork:





Got me to wondering what Universal films were listed un the "Horror Classics" banner.  I know of the following titles:

Black Castle, The
Climax, The
Curse of the Undead
Night Monster

Inner Sanctum Mysteries - 3 double features
     Calling Dr. Death / Strange Confession
     Weird Woman / Frozen Ghost, The
     Dead Man's Eyes / Pillow of Death

What others were there?

Here's what I've come up with in A-Z order:

The Black Cat (1941, have artwork for)
The Black Castle (have artwork for)
Black Friday (have artwork for)
Calling Dr. Death / Strange Confession (Inner Sanctum)
The Climax
Curse of the Undead
Dead Man's Eyes / Pillow of Death (Inner Sanctum)
Jungle Captive
Jungle Woman
Murders in the Zoo
Mystery of Edwin Drood
Night Monster
She-Wolf of London (have artwork for)   
The Strange Door (have artwork for)
Weird Woman / The Frozen Ghost (Inner Sanctum)

My, you really ARE a busy bee!

"Murders in the Zoo" isn't under a particular banner/series name, otherwise I believe your list (for "Horror Classics") is complete.

I think you got confused Mike because the Amazon.com image oddly crops out the Horror Classics banner.

Well, hell! Way to go, amazon! Now I have to paste the top back on!

These (apparently) have no series:

THE INVISIBLE RAY
DR. CYCLOPS (Paramount)
SUPERNATURAL (Paramount)
THE UNINVITED (Paramount)

And HOUSE OF THE SEVEN GABLES has a "Universal Cinema Classics" banner.
