Inside This Issue
A Ron Cobb cover fronts #45, an issue collectors flag for its photo finds: the famous premiere shot of Bela Lugosi posing with an ape inside a House of Wax making-of, and “The Day the Post Master Trapped the Ackermonster,” on Don Post casting Forry’s lifemask. Filmbooks on The Projected Man and The Human Monster round it out.
Cover Spotlight
THE PROJECTED MAN — the 1966 British sci-fi horror about a matter-transmission experiment that goes catastrophically, gruesomely wrong — gets the FM cover treatment.
☠ Collector's Notes
A photo-archive issue: the famous shot of Lugosi posing with an ape, and Don Post casting Forry’s lifemask — images that circulated for decades trace back to pages like these. Issue #45 is the kind of book picture researchers quietly hunt.
