Don Post Calendar Mask, 1998: Quasimodo~ The Hunchback of Notre Dame

In 1998, Don Post Studios re-visited their most famous series of masks; The Universal Monsters series.

They were (unofficially) called the "Calendar Masks".

Each mask in this re-release was limited to 498 editions.  

This is obviously inspired more by Cagney's Man of 1,00 faces docu-drama than the 1923 classic, but here he is: Quasimodo, the Hunchback of Notre Dame.

This mask sports the original factory paint and hair. No mask rust has afflicted him yet.

Vincent Price Resin Model Kit by Netherworld

 A Netherworld release. Cast in resin, slightly larger than 1/6 scale. Sculpted by Paul Komoda. Early 1990's release, prior to Price's passing. I used to have the box and instructions sheet, but they were damaged/destroyed in a roof collapse. The title of the piece officially is "Vincent Price: The Corman Years". My nametag and base were all scratched up from the collapse as well. The missus saved Vincent Price when the ceiling came tumbling down. I got a replacement brass plate made, and slapped it on a larger piece of marble. It's a really nice kit. I am unsure who painted this one, as I sent it off. for paint and assembly. It might have been Paul Gill, but I honestly cannot recall.
