Is everyone fully aware of who Basil Gogos is? He did most of the covers for Famous Monsters of Filmland back in the '60's, and was a contemporary of the great James Bama. I happen to know that they were both trained by the same instructor, as a matter of fact, some six years removed. Check out his bio on Wikipedia for more info: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basil_Gogos

Needless to say, I am and always have been a HUGE fan. Thanks, Frank, for bringing us the talent of one of the best ever.

It would be very, very cool, if there was a possible chance of getting some signed boxes by the great Gogos too!
This is awesome!
Thanks Frank!

Not bad,but a dimly lit background with either a wall or corridor with egyptian hieroglyphs would make this box art even more spooky.This way,it gives the impression that there is always something more in the background.Aurora did this with great results.It really adds mystery.

It is great to see new art from Basil Gogos! His FM cover art really got my attention to buy the magazine. The Mummy never looked better!
