Making Cards - Part 2 : Legendary Lovecraft

Monsters, whether you believe n them or not, exist.  Because of writers like Edgar Allen Poe, Stephen King and H.P. Lovecraft.

 

H.P. Lovecraft is one of the recent trends of horror writers that are getting a revival through their stories and their interpretations of artists. I am pleased to be one of the selected ones to depict Lovecraft's monster mind through the MONSTER WAX card company. The company also houses one of the finest collections of monster trading cards found here -  http://www.monsterwax.com/monstermuseum.html

 

 

I wish I had more time to do these cards but I was in the middle of a deadline and got to do only a handful for the set. However, I was given some extra blank cards and will be putting some of those up for sale when the set is released.

 

 

 

If you have a favorite Lovecraft story or creature, and you want a nice investment in cards, shoot me an email and your request. A closer look at sketch cards and their rising values, you can check out  or http://www.nonsportupdate.com/ or ebay for current pricing.

All In The Family ... Actors On Cards

Every generation has its stars - in sports, in music and in film. Thr strongest link to these are relative ... or rather relatives.

This fact holds true with card collectors as well. The hobby is often passed from father to son, from Uncle to niece and so on and so forth.

We often see today's well known TV stars are offspring of movie stars - like father Donald (M*A*S*H) and son Kiefer Sutherland (24).

One of our favorite examples is Robert Mongomery of the silver screen ... related to

... his daughter who went kept us BEWITCHED on television as the lovable Samantha Stevens.

not related ... is Agnes Moorehead who played her mother.

Also not related is SABRINA the teenage witch. (but we like her)

The grim looking, gravel voiced, famed horror star John Carradine  ... is related to ...

actors Keith Carradine, Robert Carradine, Bruce Carradine and ...

David Carradine - better known for his role as a KUNG FU master.

The galaxy is as relative as STAR WARS' Carrie Fisher  who is the daughter of singer Eddie Fisher and actress ...

Debbie Reynolds. If you require further proof ...

(it says "Princess Leia's Mom")

The longest and probably most fabled lineage is the Barrymore Family ...

begininning with stage actor Maurice Barrymore ...

His actress daughter Ethel Barrymore ...

... sons John Barrymore, ...

and Lionel Barrymore ...

and beautiful Granddaughter Drew Barrymore ...
