Leon Howard / 68 B&W pages (inc. covers). If imitation is the most sincere form of flattery, then Famous Monsters of Filmland should have been most flattered by WFC, which was a direct copy of the FM look and editorial style. One of the most sought after of the early monster mag titles by collectors, WFC sported some very nice cover art, rivaling (and perhaps bettering) anything FM had to offer, at that time. Not many of these magazines survived, as this was years before the “preserve and collect” comic & monster magazine boom started in the early 1960s. Sadly WFC lasted only four issues. When it comes to the lesser known and scarcer monster magazines, Collectors have found them to be prohibitively expensive and extremely hard to find in collectible shape. Quite often our association with them is only with their cover image as obtaining a “hands-on” copy has thwarted many life-long Collectors. Here is a golden opportunity to obtain this magazine perhaps at a fraction of the price one in better shape would undoubtedly command. Contents: The Crawling eye, Night of the Blood Beast, Frankenstein 1933, It The Terror From Outer Space, Frankenstein 1970, War of the Colossal Beast, Monster of the Month, Count Dracula 1931, Dracula's Daughter, Dr. Terror's House of Horrors, The Life Story of Lon Chaney and more! Condition: covers have come away from the staples as a unit, apprx. 1/8" split at bottom of spine, apprx. 1/4" split at top of spine, apprx. 3/4" tear near bottom right corner along reading edge of front cover, two parallel creases across the surface of front cover (as shown), wear/creasing along bottom edge of front cover, waviness from water/moisture/humidity dry-out (magazine has gotten wet at one time), wear/creasing along top edge of back cover, much creasing/wear/crinkling over areas of the surface of back cover, internally complete with all pages (waviness) with nothing clipped out or missing. All magazines are packaged with Collectors in mind. They will be individually bagged, and sandwiched between two pieces of over-sized cardboard. This not only helps to prevent magazine edge damage during the shipping phase, but it also helps to prevent folding and rough handling of the magazine(s). This secured package is then put into a cushioned bubble mailer, helping to ensure you will receive your item in the same condition that it leaves my crypt in! A quote for postage cost for combined shipping for multiple purchases is always available. Thanks very much for your interest in my items!
