TEENS DIG MONSTERS

Hey you hepcat monster fans, check out this January, 1959 issue of Teen Magazine! The photo is of Duncan “Dean” Parkin as the cyclops from the 1957 movie The Cyclops.


Dean is sporting a snazzy giant snake neck tie. This photo created a snake neck tie fad with teenagers in the spring of 1959. Like most fads, it faded out after a few strangulations!

The one page article is about Ralph Helfer, the animal trainer that worked on the film.
