Best,

That's good to hear, Josette.  I will try clearing my cache again when time permits and see if that does the trick.

Wow is right! I moused over to get the detailed look, but the true beauty of the workmanship must surely only be realized in person, especially walking around the painting in good lighting and seeing all those colors flashing through and around the portrait.

Great find!

Dear God, Don Briscoe was a beautiful man. Sighhhh....

I'm not at all surprised about the situation with the Dan Ross book, given that there's no way he could have seen the completed film when he was working on the manuscript.

And he really churned those things out quickly, though the DS film book does show a somewhat higher level of skill, or at least such as my impression.  I'll never forget the mention of him typing the entire final chapter of one of his "books" in the back seat of his station wagon in front of the post office... he had to have the packet stamped on that day according to the terms of his contract, I seem to recall...

Patti, Naomi dies in episode 458, and in the next episode, Joshua tells Barnabas his mother has died. It's near the end of the 1795 storyline.

Sam Evans was hospitalized as a result of injuries from Adam's attack on him at home.  I think Sam may have died as a result of a heart attack from the stress of the dream.   That episode where he was trying to tell Vicki the dream and Stokes was present was the very first episode of DS I ever saw!

That photo of Grayson with the teacup is so divine.  I think I've seen a color version but I could be hallucinating again...

The sequence where Carolyn causes a car crash is very reminiscent of a similar sequence in one of my all time favorite films, Horror Hotel (1960).  This sequence has been re-staged a couple of times in various films, I believe.

G.

That's a fabulous shot of Julia and Roger. Too bad the printing was so shoddy.

Thanks for sharing it with us!

I loved the one that was used for the cover of THE FOE OF BARNABAS COLLINS by Dan Ross.  I think it was only ever printed that one time, at least way back when.

I think he does look rather formidable in that. So it probably does not meet your criteria.

If you're on Facebook, there are several Jonathan Frid and Barnabas fan groups that have tons of photos of him on them.  There are I would think similar groups on Tumbler and "Reddit."
