Thread: Movie memorabilia?

Tweet

Anybody else collect Horror movie memorabilia? or anything genre related.
Autographs, posters, books, original movie props...anything at all?

If so..what is the pride of your collection and is there anything you are looking or saving for at present?

My prized items are a Boris Karloff autograph and a poster for the original Hammer "Dracula" (1958)..released Stateside as "Horror of Dracula".

Apart from those, I have a fair collection of books and magazines going back to the late 1960's-1970's, and lots of films on VHS & DVD.

I sent you a PM.

Baron-That's great. Do you have pictures of your awesome stuff? I would love to collect but I don't trust the stuff on ebay and I don't know where else to get it.

Awesome collection Mr Frost, particularly the original movie posters.
My son (He's named Jason...and yes, he was named after him ), has quite a few of the original McFarlane "movie maniac" figures and the 18" Michael Myers NECA. I've been checking out the new 18" NECA Jason figure for the new release..looking at getting that for his birthday this year. looks a pretty cool figure.

I don't have any photo's at the mo, I'll try to get round to taking a few.

To be honest, I have seen some stuff on e-bay that I liked the sound/look of, but have been a bit nervous about buying. Although my experience of e-bay has been mostly positive, and found most people genuine I've never spent a vast amount of ££'s in one transaction. There is a lot of counterfeit stuff out there and the scammers are very good at what they do, so I understand your caution.
My Karloff autograph was bought for me as a 40th birthday present by my family, after my daughter saw it in a shop that specialised in autographs and framed pictures...they clubbed together to aquire it for me.

My Hammer "Dracula" poster I bought from a dealer in London way back in the '70's..i think I paid about £15 for it..quite a bit in those days, but less than $30 today

Thanks Baron, I think you can pick up the new Jason on line right now as we speak. looks pretty cool from what i have seen so far of it, sad thing is i am running out of room to put these things lol! my fav is still the one from Pt 7 A new Blood

I have an original 8x10 press photo released by Warner Bros. for The Exorcist. I had to have something from this movie, so I bought it and framed it, and have it on my wall.

My main movie collection is my DVD's/Blu-Rays/VHS!

I also have:

Michael Myers Mask


a 'lifesze' 24" Chucky doll


a Child's Play 3 Chucky 12" Talking Doll in Good Guy Box

7" Movie Maniacs Series 2 Ghostface action figure

18" Talking Freddy Krueger action figure




Carrie film cell



Night of the Living Dead mug



12" Saw Puppet With Tricycle


Munsters model car 1:18 Scale Die-Cast Replica



Chucky, Beetlejuice, and Herman Munster headknockers



Plus with it being my birthday in only 3 days, I am hoping I can add to it!!

Well..since you asked.. Here is some, key word, some, of it...
