Some new shots, though you have seen some things before--but maybe of interest anyhow.

Gov't bldg column & other fragments from EARTH VS THE FLYING SAUCERS, and some fragments of animated elephant's hide from 20 MILLION MILES TO EARTH....


A couple heads formerly in Forry's collection--also F. Kruger and some small odds and ends from there, too--


More masks/heads from the Ackermuseum, and in background, a CAT-WOMEN OF THE MOON "widow's peak" hairpiece made by Harry Thomas--


Some Harryhausen figures--and in background, a Frank Dietz painting of the FRANKENSTEIN burning windmill!


Featured on the wall, my favorite Mike Bennett painting--March as Hyde!  Near bottom, you can see the METROPOLIS robotrix replica from Forry's collection--her head and one hand--


Some sci-fi toys and models, incl. the little INVADERS FROM MARS creature I made from an 8" Claude Rains "Invisible Man" extra head!


More sci-fi models and toys--the MARS ATTACKS head is a resin prototype from the making of the film--

Yes, I will be at the con...we will have to get together. 

Is that one of the Don Post reissue Frankenstein masks in the first picture of your collection?  It's a nice looking one.

bust and the............................................everything!!!!!

[poseablemonster]

Some great stuff there; Karloff board game, Monster-Nik Frankentroll, Phantom nodder...great collection!

[NekroDave]

Beautiful! Each time I've seen that Karloff board game on Ebay by itself, I never want to pay the going rate for it. Then I see it in someone's collection and kick myself for not getting it. It looks so good surrounded by other monster stuff.

What's the story with the Mortician's Powder? Now that's not something you see in every collection!

[KARLOFFSIDEKICK]

Thank you for the kind words everyone.  While not the massive room-sized collection that some members have, I was always kinda forced to keep my goodies to a managable size, being a former apartment dweller and all.

Regarding NekroDave's question, I got this little ditty while attending a funeral home auction about 10-12 years ago.  Seems they dumped all the old stuff and bought all new goodies.  Shortly thereafter there was a rift in the ownership, bills weren't paid, and the whole place went down the tubes.  I was down in the creepy basement w/ the owner (whom I befriended that afternoon) and literally tripped over this vintage tin.  The old codger said "put it in your pocket kid, before the auctioneer tries to sell that too!"...so I did and it now proudly sits  in my collection.  Here's a better image.
