Date Sold 10/30/2016 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Photographic Transparency (measures 4" x 5" [10 x 13 cm]) (Learn More) Castle of Frankenstein, the American horror, science fiction (sci-fi) and fantasy film magazine ("The Magazine of Fantasy & Imagination") which was published in New Jersey by Calvin Thomas Beck from 1962 to 1975. It was a "re-start" of an earlier magazine from 1959 called "Journal of Frankenstein" that only lasted one issue. Larry Ivie (who also was cover artist for several early issues) and Ken Beale edited the first three issues, and writer-artist Bhob Stewart (a legendary early EC Comics/E.C. Comics fan, and his first name is really "Bhob") edited the magazine from 1963 into the early 1970s. The magazine ran 25 issues, plus one annual. During its primary run, Castle of Frankenstein outlasted the majority of monster magazines that filled the market for two decades, with the notable exception of Famous Monsters of Filmland. Castle of Frankenstein had much serious film analysis, and it also included coverage of obscure movies, especially foreign movies, and it even covered then current science fiction and horror books and comics. Artist: Larry Ivie Important Added Info: Note that offered here is a 4" x 5" color transparency of the cover art for the very first issue of "Castle of Frankenstein" magazine by Larry Ivie. We don't know when it was created or for what purpose it was used, because our consignor purchased it from the collection of a recently deceased collector, so there is no one to ask questions of. But either the artist solely painted in the word "Frankenstein", or the title was originally intended to be solely "Frankenstein" and was later changed to "Castle of Frankenstein", because those additional words are not on this transparency (but then again, neither are the month and price in the top right corner, and this transparency image has less color than the final published cover). Please do not bid on this transparency unless you can accept the uncertainties as to its origins. Condition: very good. The transparency has slight wear around the edges in the blank areas.
