Zacherle: Zacherle's Monster Gallery (Limited Green
& Orange "Pumpkin" Vinyl Edition) LP. Real Gone Music’s Release
of Zacherle’s Monster Gallery Comes in Green & Orange “Pumpkin” Vinyl and
Features the Original Cover Art
Limited to 1000 Copies
Released in Time for Halloween Almost Exactly a Year After Zacherle’s Death
A Timely Tribute to Two Unconventional Funny Men (Davis Died in 2016 as
Well)
Through out the ‘50s and ‘60s, John
Zacherle Was the “Cool Ghoul” of East Coast Television, Presenting Late-Night
Horror Movies to Delighted Teenagers in New York and Philadelphia
Zacherle Parlayed His TV Success in to a Recording, Acting, and Radio Career
His Rarest and Most Sought-After Album Is 1963’s Zacherle’s Monster Gallery,
Which Sells for Up to $150 Online If You Can Find it
Released on Elektra’s Budget Imprint Crestview, the Record Was a Copy of the
1960 Release Spook Along with Zacherley, Except That It Featured Cover Art by
Legendary Mad Magazine Artist Jack Davis. Fittingly enough, The Cool Ghoul
himself, John Zacherle, passed away right around Halloween in 2016, and now we
here at Real Gone Music are celebrating his one-year “deathday” by releasing
his incredibly rare album Zacherle’s Monster Gallery, originally issued on the
budget Elektra imprint Crestview, on green & orange “pumpkin” vinyl limited
to 1000 copies! This record was originally released in 1963, and was actually a
copy of the 1960 Elektra album Spook Along with Zacherley, except for one very
important detail: the cover art to the Crestview release was inked by legendary
Mad Magazine artist Jack Davis, who actually passed away last year as well.
Which probably explains why original copies of this record are selling for
about $150 if you can find them…So consider this release a twin tribute to two
guys who brought a big smile to millions of kids, especially those on the East
Coast that used to see Zach present all those cheesy horror movies on TV.
R.I.P., Zach and Jack!

*Record age is immaterial to its condition.
* Promotional releases will be denoted in the product description.
· New [ N ] Manufacturer Sealed, seal may have been split to check colour variant. Never played. Note some CD’s are manufacturer issued without shrink wrap.
· Mint [ M ] As New. Never played. No corner or edge dings, shrink-wrap is intact. All additional items such as inserts, lyric sheets and posters etc... will be perfect.
· Near Mint [ NM ] May have been played a couple of times but the record shows no signs of having ever been played. This is highest grade allowed for an opened, handled record. The vinyl is virtually flawless, bright and shiny. A very minor, barely visible scuff or two may be permitted, but no scratches. The disc should play with no audible noise. The label is bright, clean and unmarked. Sleeves will be near new condition. Virtually no wear to faces, edges or corners.
· Excellent [ EX ] Record surfaces are bright and clean but may have a few light paper scuffs or superficial surface marks that do not affect play. The record has obviously been played, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light blemish. Sleeve may have some very minor wear to faces, edges or corners of covers.
· Very Good [ VG ] A well cared for used record. Record surfaces may show some slight signs of wear and may have scuffs or light scratches. May have some very light surface noise or isolated crackles and pops. Labels may be marked lightly. Sleeve may have some ring wear, moderate wear to edges and corners, light creases or stress lines, and other minor defects.
· Good [ G ] Record shows visible signs of wear. Some surface noise may be audible. Groove wear may be noticeable, as will some scratches that may cause clicks or pops. Labels may be marked. Sleeve will have heavier ring wear, edge wear and corner damage and some discoloration.
· Fair [ F ] Likely to be lots of minor scratches and scuffs with surface noise audible. Potential label marks and damage. Sleeve will have noticeable edge and ring wear and feature some tears, marks and discolouration.
· Poor [ P ] Scratched, scuffed and generally well worn with surface noise audible. Sleeve will have heavy ring and edge wear and likely tears, marks and damage. We will endeavour not to sell vinyl in this condition unless it is extremely rare and can be professionally cleaned and salvaged or where the cover is in good enough condition to warrant purchasing for the cover alone.
