Vtg Eureka 55 Frankenstein Halloween Die Cut Universal USA MOST RARE?? Frankie appears unbranded, but If Ya Know, Ya Know- And That's Why You're Here!! READ- First thing first- his one leg is detached. It is not ripped or torn off, if you know how to re-attach the leg to the jointed hinge, then Lucky You!! Either way, even taping it, will bring this smooth talker/slow walker back to life again!
And scare the willies outta the children!! This vintage Eureka wall hanging is a must-have for any Halloween collector. Featuring a die-cut design of Universal's Monsters' "Frankenstein". This piece is sure to add a touch of spookiness to any room. Made of sturdy cardstock material, it has been preserved since its manufacture in the 1970s in the United States.I couldn't find this anywhere until I google-lensed it & got the whole scoop. This Frankenstein is my favorite of the lot. It is clearly based on Glenn Strange, and has gorgeous artwork. It is super large, 55 inches, and really makes a statement when you hang it up on the wall.
Although this is clearly a Universal Frankenstein, there is no sign of Universal licensing anywhere on the header. Dracula-- Dracula is the easiest of the Eureka diecuts to find. At first it appears to be just a wonderful generic Count Dracula. The closer inspection reveals that elements of the likeness are based on Robert Quarry in the Count Yorga films. This has always led me to believe that perhaps Frankenstein was too obviously a Universal rip off, and the Universal lawyers put the kibosh on it.
But Dracula was suitably generic. Whether you're a fan of classic horror movies or simply appreciate unique collectibles, this Eureka Frankenstein wall hanging is a great addition to any collection. As the item is pre-owned, will show display and storage wear; mostly tape attached to the die cut, some bends. We already went over his leg, and also a spot on his good leg wear tape May been attempt to be taken off. We appreciate you and your good taste recognizing the collectibility of this unique decoration! LP/Vinyl/Record/Album is, sadly, NOT included.
