Is there a good story to go with how you obtained this what I guess would be a mini grail?

[tv horror]

Count who is that actor drinking the coffee and do you know where it is from.

[Count Zero]

ah, i wish i did have a tale to croon.

but sadly, i do not.

 

it was by a terrible stroke of luck that i happened to search ebay one morning... and there it was looming in my saved searches... newly listed with a buy it now.

 

after speaking with the seller - he noted that it was tucked into a box of FM mags that he purchased over 20 years ago.

 

 

 

...i don't know who that actor is or what that image is from

[tv horror]

Thanks for the reply, I also love that FM card who wouldn't want to be a member.

back in 1958 FM starting running an ad for it's FM club (issue no.2)

if you sent in 75¢ for your lifetime membership you got the vice president badge, membership card, and a certificate. (i think you might have also been able to post a classified ad in the mag as well)

 

the certificate is hellishly rare

in 2005 one sold for $400

 

 

 

still looking...

[tv horror]

What about the William Castle club items have you ever came across any of those.

[Count Zero]

In a hobby such as comics and related memorabilia it is nice to know that something hellishly rare can be obtained for under $1K. That is what I loved about MAD magazine back in the day. Something incredibly rare would be in the hundreds but even then I was too cheap or poor to buy it.

[Count Zero]

you're absolutely right. it's very nice. case in point - ive been hunting for a HG copy of warren's house of horror for a long time now... its still obtainable for pretty cheap too... ive just been preoccupied with this monster memorabilia stuff and have missed out on some great copies.

 

im always surprised at how most of these items go unnoticed to collectors.

obscure as some of them may be - there is still a pretty strong following of collectors out there as well.
