Okay, Boils and Ghouls, I know we all have more art sitting around our collective mansions than we have wall space. Tonight, I present three such pieces that are waiting for their turn in the Night Gallery.

The first isn't even in a frame yet, but I plan on remedying that shortly. This is a Ken Kelly signed print of his KISS "Destroyer" album cover, one of the best selling and most loved album covers in rock art history.



Next, I present a framed mini poster of the Oscar Best Picture winning "Lord of the Rings: Return of the King" signed by Best Director, Peter Jackson himself.



Last, but certainly not least, I present one of my treasured theatrical posters, an original Japanese "Humanoids from the Deep" one sheet in all of its tawdry glory.

This Gogos piece hangs over me and my fiance's bed (appropriately enough  :D)



Is that an original or a signed and numbered print?

???

It's a numbered print signed by Gogos. I think this might be one of the originals that Rob Zombie owns, but I could be wrong on that... I know he owns a good handful of Gogos' Famous Monsters cover originals.
Do you like monsters? They're my only weakness...

LOVE that graveyard Night Gallery pic!! My wife and I have been looking for that, but the one in the series with the open casket.

A friend of mine sent me a BBC documentary on "Copy Artists". These are folks who live in China and Hong Kong and they are artists, but make their living copying famous paintings for the foreign markets. They get paid a pittance and room and board (which is essentially a closet). The dealers sell the paintings on the internet fairly cheap. I wonder if that is where this one originated? The thing that struck me about the documentary was their hope that one day they would be able to sell their own works, versus their copies.

I'm not familiar with the rules and regulations on ImageShack. Apparently uploading a poster of "The Lord of the Rings" violates some type of copyright law? I certainly didn't mean to break the law. Does anyone here know why that image was taken down as "Forbidden" while most other film related images are fine to post?

I love this painting!  Do you have any specifics on this?
It's the original for a 7" EP by Electric Frankenstein and some other bands.

I bought it off ebay from the artist, Johnny Ace, about 12 years ago.

Here's the stained glass window in the door leading from my collectibles room to the upper porch:





And hanging on the opposite wall from the stained glass window is the original art for the 1972 rerelease of the "Song of the South" movie poster which I acquired through a Hake's auction about five years ago:

No that one.....the graveyard painting is one of a series that included an open grave and casket with Roddy McDowell coming out of it.

Scatter, point me to a pic of it on the web and we'll talk.... ;)

I've posted this elsewhere on this site, so I hope no one minds seeing it again, just a proud father who likes to show his son's talent.
