I posted this pic up in my Peter Cushing FB and Instagram groups and thought I'd share it here as well.  Displaying a book from my private collection that you don't see everyday - the very first Peter Cushing biography from 1957. Titled "Three Men and a Gimmick" by Robert Hirst and published by The World's Work, the book actually contains four biographies - Peter Cushing,  Terry-Thomas, Arthur Askey and Sabrina (the gimmick). All the biographies were actually taken from the pages of TV Mirror in which the subjects gave their background in their own words.

This thread has gone eerily quiet...:fear:

Winkled this out of a grubby little lot on eBay UK -

Untitled_13042022_102817.thumb.jpg.6fbbb2c3fc62a32b2d13e9c6225c0022.jpg

By far the best item in the lot & one I've been on the lookout for for a long time. :banana:

I’m sure all UK editions are tough to find to put a full run together

No such thing as a full run, I'm afraid. UKPPVs are a random & non-logical bunch. I'll have to look it up, but I think there only a couple of others for the Twilight Zone run. :frown:
