Cool vintage paperback book by Edward Edelson. Archway/Pocket Books, 1974, first paperback printing, 120 pages. A nonfiction narrative exploring early monster movies. It covers the legends behind the stories, and the brilliant directors, technicians, and actors who created some of the most successful early horror films, and features stills of such classic villains as King Kong, Frankenstein, Dracula, and the Wolf Man. The book is in very good used condition, showing light wear, mostly to the covers and edges, i.e. creases and scratches. No reading creases in the spine and no spine slant. A name is written in green ink at top of first page. Otherwise, all pages are clean - no writing, highlighting, or tears. See all 6 photos. From a smoke-free home.
