This item:  An original signed photo of the late Mel Welles (1924 - 2005) who starred in many genre favourites such as Abbott & Costello meet the Mummy, Little Shop of Horrors, The She Beast, Lady Frankenstein, Wolfen.....  and more. This is a superb image of Welles being attacked by one of the eponymous monsters from  the cult Corman classic, Attack of the Crab Monsters (1957). A superb action image and a great, clear signature. This was signed for me when I met Dr. Welles (he was a Ph.D) at the famous Festival of Fantastic Films in Manchester.
