Set Comments

A second series to the Horror Monsters Green set (also released in 1961), Horror Monsters (Orange) offer the collector a windfall of famous monster faces and typical goofy monster jokes on the back.

Though Horror Monsters (Orange) is a continuation of Horror Monsters (Green), many people collect it as it's own set.
