Description

Jack Pierce Scrapbook Lot - Werewolf of London (Universal, 1935). Still (5.75" X 8.5"). For years we've heard about the makeup that Jack Pierce created for use in "Werewolf of London" that was rejected by the studio as being too horrific. This still, from Jack Pierce's own collection, displays that makeup and bears resemblance to the final makeup that Lon Chaney Jr. would wear in "The Wolf Man" six years later. Simply stated, this is an amazing still from a legendary makeup creation. From the Personal Scrapbook of Jack Pierce. Very Good.
