Title: Cover Art
Post by: I Ching on December 28, 2006, 10:21:44 PM

Since I never opened the bundle packs of the VHS tapes I purchased from MPI, I'm curious as to what all of the front of the slipcase covers look like.  Does anyone know of a website that shows all of the cover art?

The last time I was there a few months ago, MPI's own Web site did. But with them phasing out the VHS collection, I'm not sure if they still do.

Alas, they no longer show the covers of the VHS tapes, only the DVDs. It is too bad, too--the artwork on the VHS tapes was pretty cool; lots of photos. Anyone have a scanner, perhaps, to show a few? [beg2]

Amazon (http://www.amazon.com) still lists them.  Just search VHS for "Dark Shadows Vol" and more than 200 pages will come up.  They won't be in order, but you can specify a specific volume in your search.

Thanks for the heads-up about Amazon.  You can sort the titles alphabetically and it pretty much lists them chronologically.  Most of the covers in the Barnabas episodes look more like paintings than photos.  I wonder if they were based on actual photos.
