MAGAZINE HISTORY: Get this RARE cult horror mag for your home library!Famous Monsters of Filmland was originally conceived as a one-shot publication by Warren and Ackerman, published in the wake of the widespread success of the package of old horror movies syndicated to American television in 1957. But the first issue, published in February 1958, was so successful that it required a second printing to fulfill public demand. Its future as part of American culture was immediately obvious to both men. The success prompted spinoff magazines such as Spacemen, Famous Westerns of Filmland, Screen Thrill Illustrated, Creepy, Eerie, and Vampirella. FM offered brief articles, well-illustrated with publicity stills and graphic artwork, on horror movies from the silent era to the current date of publication, their stars and filmmakers. Warren and Ackerman decided to aim the text at late pre-adolescents and young teenagers. In the early 1980s, the magazine folded after Warren became ill and unable to carry on as publisher, and Ackerman resigned as editor in the face of the increasing disorganization within the captainless Warren Publishing Company. The magazine stopped publication in 1983 after a run of 191 issues. In addition, check out my other HORROR CLASSIC magazines currently up for bid. Many are out-of-print and not available.

Thornton, upset by Ghomeshi's mentioning his career in the film industry during the interview with The Boxmasters, became non-responsive before relating a long story of how he read and entered a contest sponsored by FM when he was a boy.Since this is long gone and out-of-print, grab it while you can!
