Scatter- what is that exactly behind the Record?....to me, it looks like a shrunken head(who knows with my eyesight)   

Nah, it's some dried twigs and berries kinda thingy that Nancy keeps in a vase.

Nice! Were the Barnabas and Quentin pictures still with it? A couple of years ago, the year that Curtis passed, I met David Selby at an Anniversary event at the Vista and got him to autograph it. Had Robert Cobert Autograph the album cover

OG

Sadly, no. But for .59 cents, what the heck?

I was going to go outside to the yard and pick up some twigs and dried stuff for her, hoping to save myself $15 for the ones in that vase. She wasn't going for it.

Hello there! New guy Bud here. Just picked this guy up and wondering if anyone has any info on him? Definitely Frank, stands 3" tall and was in with toys that would date to the late 60's or early 70's. Thanks guys!  Bud B

  Look out guys! I think I have the hang of this picture posting! Let the floodgates open! Anyway, along with the Franky in the previous post, I picked up these little monsters. Approx. 2" tall or less. Anyone recognize them or have any ideas where they are from or by who? Thanks, Bud B

Those look like Freakies from the short-lived cereal of the same name to me.

Dunno about the blue critter, but the other two are Cowmumble and Gargle. They were two of the characters from Freakies cereal in the 1970's.

Hello BigBud, That's a "Palmer Frankenstein". Palmer made a nice set of monsters! Some less common than others. At toy/antique shows/flea markets you almost always see bags of loose assorted army men and other plastic playset pieces. I always inspect those for Palmer and MPC monsters thrown in. To some dealers they're all the same, for example a Palmer Cyclops and Kong mixed in with plastic animals for under a dollar. Good find!

[bigbud]

Yea Packy! I know what you're saying. The Palmer Frankie was in with a Marx Desert Fox Playset I picked up.......he'd been in among some 50+ German soldiers for probably 35 years! Goose-steppin' Frankie, what a thought......Bud

[Gasport]

From what i've heard, blue is the most desirable color of  the Palmer monsters...CONGRATS!

[marsattacks666]

Palmer Monsters are quite cool!

[Gaberax]

Good find on the Blue Palmer Franky!  And ramsey37 is dead on about the  Freakies. 

I saw this at the NBC store (still getting emails from a purchase for my daughter last year.)  Not sure it is appropriate for this forum but thought it might be worth a look.

Looks like a cool shirt, but the design looks almost...familiar somehow.  





I know Universal has deals set up with the Karloff, Lugosi, & Chaney people, and the Creature costume design belongs to Universal themselves, but is there someone in charge of Elsa Lanchester's estate?
