Reviews
Dr. Vollin MD (Doctor of Monsters) Movie Collectors World #714 CHILDREN OF THE NIGHT:
Congratulations to Jim Gresham and his multi-talented daughter Joelle, on the completion of Jim's brainchild, his new poster book, entitled Children of the Night. This brand spanking new, hot off the press, huge 300 page book, features a color display of rarely seen classic horror posters and lobby material of all sizes. As Jim's favorite saying goes, I get by with a little help from my friends, is how he went about assembling this book. Jim searched high and low to find these special images. His efforts were certainly a labor of love, for it was no easy task, I'm sure. Jim said he felt there was a need for such a book and that it was done more for pleasure than for gain. Jim told me, his daughter Joelle, who has a degree in graphic design, was the biggest help of all. Joelle played a major part in the books design and layout. It looks like this book is going to be a vital addition to every poster collector’s library, ranking right up there with Ron Borst's ground breaking Graven Images and Robert Brosch's Color Collector Guides.
