WISH YOU WERE HERE

Greetings! Today, I'd like to revisit an earlier post here at Castle Famous that showed some ghoulishly fun postcards. These were postcards that one would purchase in gift stores at Universal Studios Hollywood back in 1967.

First up is another postcard of the Musters set at Universal Studios. I'm not quite sure how many different Munsters postcards were produced in this series, but so far I'm counting four including this one which was graciously sent to me courtesy of George Chastain.



And while this next postcard may not be of the Munster family, it's still more than worthy to be sent to anywhere in the continental U.S.A. Who would dare to reject Vincent Price? Maybe someone who fancies being dipped into hot molten wax!

Thanks for sharing these!

I collect postcards, too, but mine can't hold a candle to the HOUSE OF WAX one! (A movie that was shot only on wick-ends.)

Is that the "real" Herman Munster or a dummy? VERY cool card!

Hello Dave. Yup .. that's a dummy alright. Glad you liked the card. Makes you wonder where that dummy ended up? Not on eBay .. yet anyways.
