Description: Complete run of Fantastic Monsters of the Films, issues #1 - #7, published from 1962 to 1963. These magazines are in fair to good condition. All foldouts are present and intact. Issue #2 is missing the back cover and has staples inserted from the back. Rather uncommon and interesting magazine.Cinema magazine, small Bedsheet-size, issued by Black Shield Productions. Seven issues from 1962 to 1963. Publishers were SciFi fan Bob Burns and film special effects artist Paul Blaisdell. Edited by Ron Haydock. Considerable material was contributed by author Jim Harmon. The magazine was a high-quality attempt to produce a more-mature publication than offerings then generally available; the photographic covers of #2-#6 showed various creatures created by Blaisdell for films he had worked on. #8 was at the printers when a fire broke out that destroyed the entire print run as well as many photographs and lobby-cards owned by the publishers, resulting in the magazine's termination. Each issue featured a fold-out poster, which has made intact copies difficult to find and somewhat costly.
