'NEVER MIND FINDING THE WITCHES.. I found the CANDY and CHOCOLATE!' A fab photo sent to me by Frank N Stein today ๐
We all know that #VincentPrice was a 'choc-o-holic' . .and here is the
proof . . it's also heart warming to discover he was a very generous
one too! Here is Vincent, while on location filming, in full 'Matthew
Hopkins' costume and on a quest though the streets of 1967 #Suffolk #UK...
buying a stash of sherbet and chocolate, for himself and the crew of 'Witch-Finder
General'! It seems that VP was a '#sherbet' lover too and who can
blame him... like the candy and chocolate, Vincent Price was sweet, unique and
always leaves me wanting more ๐๐ - Marcus
UPDATE: ON POSTING this photograph in our daily posts at the FACEBOOK PCASUK FAN PAGE today, PCASUK follower Stuart Carroll, who lives in the town where Price was buying his chocolate all those years ago, saw the PCASUK pic today, and zipped down to the location of where 'Dora Rogers Sweets and Alcohol' store was located all those years ago and snapped this terrific pic of him this morning . . with chocolate! Many thanks to Stuart for taking the time and effort to do this today and sharing the pic ๐ - Marcus

#LUSH!
My FAVOURITE Peter Cushing lobby still. One of eight, from the UK
distributors photographs of pics that would have been displayed in the
lobby of cinema or in those wonderful glass cabinets that you would see
in the foyer or on the wall outside the entrance of the cinema..
remember those? Because they were hang up, pinned or often hung up in
damp glass cabinets and open to the elements, few survive today . . so
if they are 90% intact, it's a rarity. All these stills were black and
white, but hand tinted in four or less colours. They were cheap to
produced and looked better than black and white lobby stills... now,
they are worth a fortune! I love the richness of the colours in this one ๐
It's a wonderful pose of Peter Cushing in his second horror genre role
for Hammer films. He would appear as Van Helsing in another four films
for Hammer . . and he aged and played the role so well๐ - Marcus
