Today is a big one as we have two new offerings from a couple of heavy hitters…Martin Ansin and Ken Taylor!
First up, we have Ansin’s unbelievably beautiful poster for James Whale’s BRIDE OF FRANKENSTEIN. This is the second poster in our official UNIVERSAL MONSTERS series and they just keep getting better.

As always, Martin puts great care and a lot of thought into his designs. Here is what he had to say on his creation:
“The poster started while I was watching the film, and the reanimating-a-heart-on-a-plate scene came up. “We must be patient – the human heart is more complex than any other part of the body.” It just outlined the main theme of the movie for me. For the visuals, my main references were antique medical illustrations, which showed the right mix of science and gothic horror.”
Next up, we have Ken Taylor on the Richard Pryor print titled “Thank you. Good Evening! Hope I’m Funny.” Earlier this year, we here at Mondo got obsessed with Richard Pryor’s stand up and movies (BLUE COLLAR!) and wanted to do something to honor this legendary performer. The print features a contemplative Pryor with the background paying homage to Pryor’s most memorable stand up moments.
We got in touch with Pryor’s Planet and worked closely with company president Jennifer Pryor to make this happen. We will have several for sale here and Jennifer will also be getting a super limited micro run of these prints on wood. Keep an eye out on PRYOR’S PLANET for details on her release.

Got my Bride copy! I will send pics when I have it hanging above my Universal monsters Frankenstein collection! Justin, are you still posting pictures of people’s Mondo poster displays?
Fix the shopping cart/checkout process.
You’re killing me.
cheers to the Universal series… hopefully there will be lots more as well as some of the more obscure ones, like Son of Frankenstein, Black Cat, Hunchback of Notre Dame, Werewolf of London, etc. Pleeeeeease keep Martin doing them…. nobody is better suited for these than him, but you know this already. When I receive the Bride in the mail and get her framed I will shoot you a picture of my 20′ Ansin wall of sickness.
