1963 ROSAN FAMOUS MONSTERS (RED BORDER) #12 \"THE BLOOD OF DRACULA\" RARE SET For Sale

This week I\'m offering a variety of cards from non-sport sets of the Fifties and Sixties. Monster and horror movies were big during that period, and various companies issued sets picturing monsters from the classic movies of the Thirties, as well as those from the then-current sci-fi movies of the Fifties. These sets have remained immensely popular with collectors. The Rosan company of Brooklyn issued several such sets in the early Sixties; they were done on the cheap, issued only to the vending machine or by-mail trade, but in spite of their simple and crude nature, there\'s something charming about the sets - in spite of their relative scarcity.This is card #12 from the 1963 Famous Monsters set, picturing \"The Blood of Dracula.\" The set was issued in conjunction with the popular horror movie magazine, and the backs of the cards feature ads for the magazine\'s products. The card is in generally nice shape (see scans for condition). All in all, an attractive example of a Sixties phenomenon. This would be a terrific addition to any collection!Shipping will be combined for multiple purchases.
