Thought I would start a new section for Film Mags, as I picked up a couple last week, and couldn't find where to post them...
I do have many 1000's myself, and had all but stopped buying them, but still pick certain issues up.
So, feel free to post anything you've got, Here's the two I've just recently picked up...

Just to put a few things in here. This is the Mag I got from Valerie Leon, all these were numbered and signed. A Limited edition of 500.
This was her personal copy, so not numbered. She also corrected a pic in the mag...

My god its full of stars...
we need you to archive your stuff Paul....

I got a lot from the 20's & 30's
-
I own the entire Cinefex collection.
-
I've a set of Cinefex myself, but only up to 80-odds as thats when I stopped collecting mags in general...
-
Even though I've stopped collecting Bruce Lee stuff, I had to buy this....
(http://i590.photobucket.com/albums/ss348/frankenstein31_photos/PICT0017-2.jpg)
There was only two issues in the set, number 2 was in every shop, but this issue 1 was nowhere, I'd only ever seen it advertised. Now 38 years later, I have a copy.........just goes to show a bit of patients..... eyeroll :P
-
Paul, is it you the one with the complete run of Famous Monsters or am I confusing you with another member?
I need someone who owns the first issue to help me with something...
-
It certainly is Matias, though I only have the one variation of number 7, there was 3 different one's.
Anything I can help with just ask.

That's great Paul! Sadly without those 2 variations the collection is worthless. Send it down here asap ;)
Anything I can help with just ask.
Good happy1. I remember reading somewhere (I believe the classic horror forum) that a pic from "El extraño caso del hombre y la bestia" was featured in Famous Monsters #1 issue (wrongly credited).
The image is supossedly this one (without the border art, just the still)
(http://i1025.photobucket.com/albums/y316/110x75/Collection%20-%20Argentinean%20Horror/ExtraoCasoAztecaLC1.jpg)
Could you check that out for me?

Here you go Matias.....

I think it's what your looking for.
-
Oh, thanks a lot Paul, that's what I was looking for. You are a gentleman! happy1
Now I just have to figure out how to get one of those cheap...
-
print a scan.
-
Is it just that article, as I can try scanning it for you, or photograph it at a higher res...?
-
A hi-res pic would do Paul -just for the moment-. I'll be very grateful.
I love Monsters mags and I always prefer an original over a print, but looking the price that issue is selling for... I better wait :o
Thanks!
-
P.M. sent Matias....
-
Got it!

Comic adaptations of films.

So excited, So excited! After almost 6 months one popped up on ebay this morning! It is a little beat up but man what an image!

Stunning image..
With a little bit of knowledge,and without digital enhancement..a photographer can capture a moment or an essence easily..

That's a beauty, Charlie.
Do you plan on removing the cover and restoring it for display?

That sounds like a good idea. I'll have to make a decision once in hand... I am actually starting to like old beat up stuff. It's funny when you know you can probably fix something all of a sudden having something perfect is not that big a deal anymore... For example on the African Queen; it is a perfect candidate for backing but I kind of like the patina. It makes it more original...
-
It does me good to hear you talk like this Charlie. One of the easiest ways of telling an old poster is how it has aged. You just can't fake that, these kids with their Batman repros is so much hassle. Give me a good old vintage poster with it's faults, there's nothing finer, or more Original.... It's called History, and it's what Old posters have in buckets full... :)
-
That is understandable, Paul.
Now, send me this one, so I can give it some 'history.'
(http://i590.photobucket.com/albums/ss348/frankenstein31_photos/PICT0524-1.jpg)
A few weeks in the bathroom, it'll have that well-worn look, rolled spine, etc.
Right now, it's too unblemished for your collection. wynk

IF IT WAS ME, laser print the cover, and frame, keep mag as is.

I'm exactly with you on this, too, Paul. All of these new DS posters, the continual risks of repros, quantities printed in the thousands upon thousands, all make for a crazy making game. Vintage paper, the look, the smell, the feel, along with a piece's historical bumps and bruises, are what that material is all about. To take items like these and "scrub them clean," repaint their borders to a pristine finish and make them look almost better than they did when printed, defeats the purpose (conservation efforts aside), IMO.
Someone wanting a mint 40-70 year old poster would be better off buying a reproduction (not one that is meant to fool, but those created and so noted as such). All my 2¢, of course. ;)
-
Ill add the same 2c

You know with having the experience of backing and restoring posters, I've gained a sense of appreciation for what a poster has gone through to get to the state it is in; because I have to reverse that history. It is hard work and I find myself sometimes saying "Why?"... A stain here or small tear there. Guess what? I can make that go away any time I want now... Plus, The process also covers up so much, even stuff that is not aesthetic...
Again I refer to the African Queen - If I were to back and restore it, no one would be able to read the great Charlotte North Carolina Exchange stamp on the back... That probably mean this one hung up all over the state in South Carolina... Now that just adds to the poster - completely lost if backed...
Just some of the things I ponder. If I linen back this, that history is pretty much forever gone... Just like the mag cover being from the North Dakota State School of Science... Some horn dog science geek or engineer ( thumbup) probably drooled all over it... ;D

-
clap Well said Charlie, I have two posters that need backing, but they have stamps on the back Similar to the one you posted, and I can't bring myself to cover them up. So they just stay in my "to do" pile....
-
i've been in the loft looking for something I can't find again, but this was there...
(http://i590.photobucket.com/albums/ss348/frankenstein31_photos/PICT0660-1.jpg)
-
Now, that's the first children's book I've ever seen bagged and boarded. thumbup
Nice!
-
I think so long as you've got a pic of the exchange stamp you're still preserving the history Charlie.

I just can't help myself with Film mags, just picked this up, it's from July 1966...

Name sounds familiar....that the same Phil at NSFGE?
Why is there a sealed section? Someday have a spill?

LAMP has some early 20th Century film mags if you're willing to sign up ($45 for six months). I'd like to see some scanned-in pressbooks there as well....

Here you go Ted, The sealed pages of the above mag. A bit tame, but if anyone needs these taken off the forum do say and I'll remove them...

As I say a bit tame, but a good ploy by Phil to get people to buy the Mag...
-
It may seem tame by today's standard but remember that this was a time when people were thrown in jail in the UK for renting out uncensored VHS films! (and in Sweden too, incidentally)
-
anyone got one of these?
(http://i1234.photobucket.com/albums/ff401/aririchards/Magazines%20etc/IMGP2348.jpg)
I WANT one.

I thought it was film magazines for some reason....

Ted, yes its the same Phil from NS4.
re Censorship, this magazine was on the mag racks with other stuff for anyone to look through, and I the magazine wasn't allowed in Queensland (a state in oz).
he also wrote a magazine called BEYOND IMAGINATION,
I got both of these when they were released, as a youngster, I cant remember dates off hand, but about 11 for Beyond Imagination, 13 (?) for Shocking Cinema, my mother had to buy it for me.
So, it was a thrill for me, many years later, to meet Phil and then become his friend. I had already "known" him for nearly 20 years.
If anyone has trouble finding a copy send me a message, or Phil might have some left for sale, they are getting pretty thin on the water, and also the quality of the binding isnt hot, so they tend to fall apart if handled too often .....
Beyond Imagination would be harder to get I think. Theres no hard pics in that though ;)

Damn - why didn't I know Unka had his own mags?! Or did I just forget? :-[
-
Dunno,
but shoot him an email, if he has any for sale, he will even sign for you ! ;)
if he doesnt. as I said i MIGHT have a shocking cinema or two spare. Not promising though.

Picked this up from a local shop, it's the latest release. Good to see the old fellows still making front covers...
(http://i590.photobucket.com/albums/ss348/frankenstein31_photos/PICT0191-2.jpg)
I know it's easy, anyone want to guess the film...
-
House of Frankenstein.
I feel better now about the botched Bela guesses...
-
Glad your back on form Ted... ;D
Now go back to the Bela pic, I've put a clue on...

Was given this by a fellow I know last week, not film related, but I now know how to draw those closet Girls... ;)

Fritz Willis -- a personal hero of mine.
I have a copy of this art instructional and others that the man authored.
Here's a couple of links worth looking at:

http://www.americanartarchives.com/willis%2Cf.htm (http://www.americanartarchives.com/willis%2Cf.htm)
To my knowledge, he only illustrated one movie poster (below) and IMO it failed to utilize his talents as well as it could have.

After a recent discussion with a fellow Monster fan, I was saying about the stickers and stamps that were used on Horror mags in the U.K. from the U.S. I feel it's the same as having a snipe or censors stamp on a poster, I wouldn't want it removed, I love this kind of History, we both agreed. So in the Mag section here's a few examples..

The stamps on the US mags given them an added element. Knowing they were sent and sold in the UK.

Paul -- great stuff!!
Are these 2 Spanish versions of FM, in a sense? Or related to that mag or publishing company is a way?
I know that Gogos was commissioned and created his cover images for FM. If the latin mags are unrelated, I wonder how they were able to use the same art of Bela and Karloff? Maybe as simple as paying a fee to Warren to use the same art?
-
Yes Jeff, these are Spanish versions of Famous Monsters. The run was not as long as the original set, only around 20-30 issues, I think... I maybe wrong here, I'd have to check the print run... I do need 3-4 issues for the set of these..

I never knew that FM had a Spanish version!!

Well about 35 years later I finally get a number 2 Monster mag. it's a reprint as all the UK copies were destroyed back in the 70's. I kept meaning to pick up the french version, may still, but for now I'm happy with this. Done by the original fellow, Dez Skinn.
It was my favourite U.K. Horror mag, as it un-folded to a great poster for a young fellows wall... ;D

Can't believe I'm buying mags again... :P
-
Paul..
How was it that All the original copies from the 1970s were destroyed? What about the individual copies that kids had bought back then and kept? Wouldn't many of those still be around and have survived?
Cool looking mag, tho, too.
Great cover photos. thumbup
-
They were printed overseas, and as they were heading for the U.K. a politician saw them, next thing the entire shipment was seized and ordered to be destroyed, so they never made it here, never mind got on sale...
So unless someone in the link got hold of any, there's no British copies that survived. I love one from that original run, but....

Great story there, Paul..
Luckily the original layouts were saved, so that the re-issues could be printed and sold.
How many mags were there, in total, in that series?
-
I think it's up to 19 now..
-
Are all 19 from back in the 70's that have been reprinted?
Or are these new mags added to that original set from back then?
-
There's 14 in the first set, counting number two. 3 in the second set, and the 2 new ones.
I get the feeling he maybe going to do a few others....
-
ohhh YUTTE!
-
She does look nice.... :D
-
always, even in ON THE BUSES :)

Yutte and Caroline....
mmmm.....mmmmm.....mmmm...

The cover artwork for FM (Famous Monsters) sure isnt what it used to be. This ain't no work by Basil Gogos (and is that really Henry Hull?)

And FM is now $9.95 an issue?? Yikes! faint2.gif

Photoshop speed painting gone bad...

Again I refer to the African Queen - If I were to back and restore it, no one would be able to read the great Charlotte North Carolina Exchange stamp on the back... That probably mean this one hung up all over the state in South Carolina... Now that just adds to the poster - completely lost if backed...
Just some of the things I ponder. If I linen back this, that history is pretty much forever gone...

Chris (Gingerman), I think you will appreciate this post and image, too, since you were talking about the exchange stamp on the back of your poster recently.
Charlie, did you end up backing this? Or leaving it as is?
-
I love it thumbsup.gif. I will also not back mine. 1 it doesn't need it, 2 I don't want to cover up the stamp!
Jeff Thanks for pointing this out!!!!

Does the first issue from 1962 of Sam Rubin's great 8 mm Collector/Classic Images belong here? Okie

Okie,
is this like a pamphlet? Or did the writer do reviews? Or was it more a listing of films that were being released on 8mm?
Looks interesting, for sure.

Hi Jeff, 8 mm Collector is the very first name for what is now Classic Images magazine. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Classic_Images
https://m.facebook.com/MuscatineClassicImages/
8 mm Collector started as a kind of newsletter about the fun, trials, and buying/selling of 8 mm movies. The first issue even mentions collecting multi-reel 8 mm silent films for Douglas Fairbanks (Robin Hood, Mark of Zorro); your friend and mine, Lon Chaney (Hunchback of Notre Dame, Phantom of the Opera); John Barrymore (Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde); etc. Also, the first issue has a fun article on figuring out how to take pictures of a large collection of "coming attraction" slides by using an Autographic Kodak camera's front lens element, and taping it onto a Kodak Flash Bantam camera! Doing what you had to do in 1962!!! There's also an article on field trips to visit two 8 mm companies (Entertainment Films, and Astra Films) that sold films to collectors. 8 mm Collector grew into Classic Images which today covers many aspects of film, collecting, and even posters sometimes. Over the years, unique art has been reproduced of movie stars and movie advertising that you'd be hard pressed to find anywhere else. It's a great mag then and today. Okie

Thanks for the history, Okie. Im familiar with Classic Images but never knew its genesis or where it originated from.

In addition to Famous Monsters of Filmland magazine, I'm also collecting & filling in the 10 issues of Monster World, which James Warren and FJ Ackerman decided to produce and publish in place of issues 70-79 of FM.
MW was published from Nov.1964 to Sept. 1966.
Ive read that Warren & Ackerman wanted to get to issue #100 of FM quicker, so did this maneuver, with these issues.
Up to yesterday, I only had issues #1 and #3.
Yesterday, I had issue #9 (July 1966) arrive, so was fortunate to be able to tick another off the missing list.
