CRACKED'S FOR MONSTERS ONLY NO. 5 (PART 1)

The highlight of this issue is the article about Universal makeup artist extraordinaire, Jack Pierce. Little was written about him in the days of the vintage monster mag, and in this article, the lead picture has a circle around his face so that readers can tell which one is him in the picture!

The other text article in the issue is a review of Peter Lorre's career. Both are written by Richard Bojarski, who was very active during this period. Included is a photo feature on LYCANTHROPUS, aka WEREWOLF IN A GIRL'S DORMITORY.

The issue is replete with the usual photo-caption gags and cartoons, some humorous, some not so much.
