You are right Richard the Frankenstein pictures looks like it came from your stuff. I did not have a picture of this guy and did a google search and found this one under the tab of images. I am sorry if you want I will take my own. You are right when you say that images go around. The images in my site are all over. I found this out when I did a google search and saw them in blogs, but who cares the more they spread the faster and more popular they become. In the near future I am planing to let people use my site as their own and I will be the distributor...They will also get to use my catalog as their own...

Hey what about the Monster Mayhem 3 people at chiller have asked me about them ....let me know.

I have attended chiller for the last 3 years everyone of them.

House of the Unusual sent me a new pic of the poster and asked that I delete Rick's pic, so I have done that.

No problem about the picture... Again I just thought it was funny how photos can travel.  ;D "Monster Mayhem 3 people at Chiller"?  Not sure as to what you are referring??  Email me with more info.

3 different sellers I spoke with over time asked me if you are still publishing the fanzine. One of the sellers sell different magazines of horror and he was wondering. I guess he is just looking for new items. I think you should start it again and I will help you take it to them. Let me know what you think...

Below is a link to my interview with Eddie Guevara which appeared in my fanzine Stoner's Monster Mayhem Issue #3 (Summer 1996).

A great interview...I do remember in the mid-70's, I ordered some things from Johnson Smith and another company, some very small and cheap things...there was one ad that offered an assortment of the novelty gums like Onion Gum, Pepper Gum and Bloody Gum (the offer didn't include Pucker Gum, you had to buy that separate), you could get a couple of sticks of each type for fifty cents or something like that, so I ordered it and mailed my coins to them, and after a million years, these things finally arrived in a brown envelope.  This led to a couple of days of fun as these sticks of gum were passed out to school chums...
Beautiful moving, shifting colors!

Can someone pretty please post a pic of the 7ft Frank and skeleton from HOU?

Are they in color, and does the skeleton have that jagged stuff like in the pic on the site?

Here's a pic of the 1950 Johnson Smith and Company catalog that I have.   It's 5" x 8" and almost an inch thick.  I'd like to buy some of these things at the listed prices.
