  2. Yep, you know it! God bless Vera Miles (who came in third in the 1948 Miss American pageant btw). An underappreciated starlet. Turns 80 this year, I believe.

  3. Hi, I really like your blog and hope that this interests you and your readers, maybe you could even give it a mention.

    I am attempting to amass a large collection of portraits of Frankenstein's Monster in as many different styles and in as many different media as possible as an ongoing art project. The only stipulation is that the size is 2.5 inches by 3.5 inches (standard artist trading card size) and that each card has name, date, location, title and anything else you care to add on the back.

    I welcome cards from both amateur and professional artists.

    I will be leaving blank cards with instructions and mailing address in galleries, colleges, art shops, on buses, handing them out in the street and wherever else I can think of.

    If you think you can spare the time to produce a little something, please send a portrait to:

    A Patchwork Of Flesh
    45 Silversea Drive
    Westcliff on Sea
    Essex
    SS0 9XD
    United Kingdom

    Each card I receive will be uploaded at http://apatchworkofflesh.blogspot.com/ to produce an on-line gallery, I then hope to put on an exhibition of these cards in a gallery.

  6. I loved TERRORVISION, and still do. I'll hope to add to my cred in the days and years ahead...
