Nice selection of publicity stills -- with entertaining copy to boot.
Thanks, Wim!

Well I don't know who writes the comments, but the Invisible man is actually The Invisible man returns. The lady is Nan Gray, with Vincent Price playing the Invisible one. Also the lady with the Raven is not Hazel Court, her name escapes me for the moment( bloody old age ).

Well I do ofcourse! I did not check Invisible Man and The Raven. This was info written on the back of the stills, I will check and correct! Any info is welcomed as I wrote earlier.

I'm pretty sure the girl is Connie Wallace. She looked a brunette on the still, but is more likely to be the blonde maid.

The girls name is Olive Sturgess she plays Vincent price's Daughter in the film. Got there in the end, it's one of my favorite films, cannot believe I was that slow.

I've haven't seen it in twenty years. Could not even remember Jack Nicholsons part, although I knew he played in it. Tried to check Olivia Sturgess on Google Pictures, but thought it was somebody else, hence Wallace, despite the fact that this woman only seems to have one actors credit.

Great RAVEN stills, Wim...

imdb credits Sturgess with 1965's REQUIEM FOR A GUNFIGHTER as her only other film.  Everything else was TV...

this is cool also...

cool link Brude, that'll be useful aswell.

Btw The Raven might be the only movie with an Hazel and an Olive in the starring cast

Excellent bunch of stills Mondo, did you see my set of U.K. f.o.h. stills for The Raven, in the lobby card section?

I just did, pity you took a single shot for the set. You should try these slideshows aswell. Were these color sets always in 8's like lobbysets?
I have a few of those FoH's for The Comedy Of Terrors with the extra addition of Basil Rathbone to the Terrific Trio of Karloff, Lorre and Price
