Desc-Nice pictorial essay of fantastic films from the incarnation of the genre though the 1960's. Pleasent layout and quality are what this book is about. Text is generally interesting. The author had intended to include more text but his project is rich enough in its pictorial value that it stands alone on this criteria. Mine is not even out of its original shrink wrap yet as I read the local library's copy to see if I wanted to purchase the book. B&W pics HB/DJ

Desc-Rather odd book about the horror movie productions of Universal Studios. This is not as good as the McFarland books but consider when this book was released. The production values are weak and even some of the errors are corrected by hand. (ala a typo would be corrected with a handwritten correction) The picture quality is adequate. Fairly hard to find but some dealers have asked why am I looking for it? I got it because I try to be a completist when it comes to the books dealing with strictly Universal Studios Monsters. There was a warehouse find of these not long ago and a few copies have surfaced (less than 20 were found in the warehouse find) I guess if you want this now is the time to look.
