An Albert Nuetzel cover fronts a curio collectors love. #7 runs a Zacherley feature and the famous “Mad Labs” photo of Forry alongside Nancy Reagan on the set of Donovan’s Brain, plus an early letter from a young Bill Warren — the future genre historian getting his start on the FM letters page.
TV's beloved ghoul-host Zacherley gets the full FM treatment — painted with the little Chaney Phantom perched mischievously on his shoulder, one undead host welcoming another.
Few issues photograph their era like this one — the future First Lady on a monster-movie set, printed in a monster magazine. The “Mad Labs” photo gives Issue #7 conversation-piece appeal well beyond the genre, and the Bill Warren letter adds a footnote of fandom history.

FM #7 — June 1960
The Zacherley cover in its Roland variant — the same painting, a different distribution imprint, and a genuine prize for collectors hunting the complete FM variant set. Inside: Dr. Cyclops and Donovan's Brain, and Albert Nuetzell, Zacherley, Lon Chaney, and Bill Warren.
