Famous Monsters Are Here!
Sorry for the long delay. My brother has had a lot of health problems. He dictated this list to me because of his vision difficulty. He is seeking offers on the following items, and others which he will be listing soon. Thanks for responding here or for emailing my brother, Stuart Gardner, at
granttarredus@gmail.com with any offers. Items marked "Forry" are signed by Forrest J Ackerman on the inside, not on the covers.
