The Dracula & Frankenstein 1931 Ultimate Guide New Edition Saver Bundle includes our two revised guides to the 1931 Universal horror classics, with reduced cover price on each issue AND a combined shipping rate!
The first two Classic Monsters Ultimate Guide magazines explored the creation of 1931’s Dracula and Frankenstein, two movies which played a vital role in shaping the development of the horror film genre. These high-end printed celebrations of two classic movies have delighted fans around the world, evoking the brochures you might have bought at the cinema when seeing each of these classics in 1931.
Like their cinematic counterparts, these luxury horror movie guide magazines were the start of something very special, and yet as our Ultimate Guide range has grown, it has also evolved, meaning these two vintage titles, and their accompanying saver bundle, started to feel less at home.
Completely reinvented, redesigned and reimagined, the new editions of the Dracula 1931 and Frankenstein 1931 Ultimate Guides have brought these two early entries in the Classic Monsters range bang up to date, with a slick new look, a wealth of gorgeous stills, and a host of information which didn’t make it into the original editions. These two stunning titles are now available as a saver bundle, bringing you two glorious must-have movie guides with a cover price discount and a combined shipping rate.
No fan of Universal’s golden age horror movies should be without these breathtaking Dracula 1931 and Frankenstein 1931 magazine guides. Each one is designed, printed and produced to the absolute highest standard, with a timeless layout to ensure they take pride of place in your Universal monster movie memorabilia collection. Each one is printed to A4 size (210mm x 297mm) with a sumptuous gloss cover leading you into a range of informative, professionally written articles that illuminate the conception, production and legacy of these legendary motion pictures.
The Dracula 1931 Ultimate Guide New Edition is infused with a sense of terror and wonder at the movie regarded by many as the first true horror film. Within this elegant Dracula 1931 magazine guide you’ll discover how Dracula moved from the pages of Bram Stoker’s classic novel, to the stage and then to the screen. Myriad details of its production and wider context in Universal’s story are accompanied by a range of biographies introducing key cast and crew members, from stars Bela Lugosi, Helen Chandler and Edward Van Sloan to director Tod Browning, author Stoker, and many more.
The Frankenstein 1931 Ultimate Guide New Edition, meanwhile, celebrates Boris Karloff’s timeless performance as the unfortunate Monster, a portrayal which guaranteed his place in the horror pantheon and gave cinemagoers the enduring image of Mary Shelley’s creation. You’ll learn how the movie itself travelled from the pages of the novel to the echoey sound stages of the Universal lot. This Frankenstein 1931 magazine guide is also richly informative when it comes to the movie’s cast and crew, with a wealth of biographies introducing the people who made the magic happen, from stars Boris Karloff, Colin Clive, Edward Van Sloan and Mae Clarke, to director James Whale, art director Charles C Hall and make-up maestro Jack Pierce.
The Dracula & Frankenstein 1931 Ultimate Guide New Edition Saver Bundle is an essential for any fan of classic horror movies. Key to the quality of our movie magazine guides is our commitment to the absolute finest imagery – every still is meticulously restored to look its best. Rather than cheaper newspaper-style printing, which can leave images looking flat and washed-out, we use full-colour print processes, so even black and white images burst with depth, clarity and impact. You’ve never seen Dracula 1931 or Frankenstein 1931 movie magazines like this, and with a discount on cover price and shipping, there’s no reason not to add these two magnificent magazines to your collection.
