VINTAGE ORIGINAL SET PAIR!
The Topps Trading Card Co., produced a series of 36 flip books based on the Universal Monsters (Frankenstein, Mummy, Wolfman, Creature, etc.,)
Originally they were purchased 2/pack for 5¢. They were packed uncut and required separation to view them. This pair has never been broken apart. Each contains about 30 black and white shots; when flipped in succession a very short movie clip would be produced. Both are complete and unused.
The front of each pack has a red printed skull and cross bones, Collect All 36 Movies, and Universal Pictures, Inc., .
The reverse side identifies the monster, assigns a made-up name to the scene, and includes a short description. Cartoon images of the monsters were printed around the perimeter edge. These appear to have been drawn by Jack Davis (Mad Magazine, EC Comics), but there is no signature.
MORE INFO ABOUT THIS SERIES...
From 1963 , TOPPS MONSTER MOVIE FLIP BOOKS
This set contains 36 flip books measuring 2 1/4" x 2 1/2". Each book contains 30 black and white movie frame pages, and the illusion of movement is created when the pages are flipped. These books were issued in panels of two and, consequently, they all have perforation wear on either the right or left side. These flip books were all copyrighted by UNIVERSAL PICTURES INC. , and they all contain scenes from movies featuring Universal monsters.
Yet another instance of pre-video movie collecting, as referenced in this post about 8mm versions, and early video traders. 5 cents gets you a stick of gum that slightly resembles sweetened pink sheetrock and a set of cards. On each card are two frame blowups from scenes from your favorite Universal horror film. Split the cards in half and you have two seperate cards that you need to compile with others in order to form a flip book. Buy enough gum and you too can have a piece of pocket cinema. Back in 1963, Topps’ Monster Flip Movies gave you thrilling vignettes such as Frankenstein Cries Out (“Frankenstein suspects that someone has been in his secret hideout. Angered that he may have been discovered, the brute roars furiously”), Anger of the Wolfman, The Mummy’s Wrath, or Frankenstein on Alert.
Flip books have been around for a while, of course, and so have flip books based on movies. Disney printed a bunch. There was a Bruce Lee Flip Book that came out in the early 1970s in Asia. There were even flip books of NY underground films by Jack Smith and Andy Warhol (although, perversely, the flip book of Warhol’s Kiss appears to consist of a static image).
