POSTCARDS During CREATURE FEATURE's run, KMTV made up a number of Dr. San Guinary postcards to give out as promotional items. The number of them produced is a mystery. Some think that there was one for each year of the show's run. In any case, we have six here thanks to local fans. Do you have a postcard that isn't represented here? I would like to post it here to share. Send scans of any you may have to webmaster@drsanguinary.com and I will post it here. 
1.)
This card, donated by long-time fan Jim Williamson, features Dr. San
Guinary's autograph on the front. It also features an odd photo of
the doctor that looks nothing like any of the cards i have seen up
to this point. Thanks for the donation, Jim! 
2.)
This card seems to have been released soon after Creature Feature
hit the airwaves. It appears to have been photographed at a time when
Jones didn't have the San Guinary makeup quite right yet. 
3.)
This second card features the doctor inserting an I.V. into his neck.
His makeup is much more in line with how most fans remember him, though
he has yet to be hit my a home perm at this point! This photo was
used in several of the t.v. commercails for the show. 
4.)
This was the card I personally wrote into KMTV for
when I was a little rugrat! In the background , there is a t.v. screen
displaying the studio's logo and if you look REALLY closely to the
left, you can see the "Mystery Machine" in which the doctor
would occaisionally dispatch guests of the show. I ordered ten copies
of this card as a kid, got all of them and somehow I have lost all
but two of them.
5.)
Released in 1974-75, the doctor's companion Igor finally gets a chance
to ham it up with the doctor on a postcard. This is the way San Guinary
would look for the remainder of his run, more or less. 
6.)
Donated by fan Roger Simonsen, this b/w card features a photo of Dr.
San Guinary that was also used on the Spookarama poster that I got
in my own personal copy of the kit.
Roger: "I believe I got
the b/w one at a pancake breakfast in the Food City parking lot
at 120th and Center. I remember standing in line waiting for his
autograph. My brother must have been with me, too, because I have
two copies of this one." 
7.)
This colorful postcard was also donated by Roger. Thanks again Roger!
8.)
This is the back side of the b/w card Roger sent, and is representative
of the earlier cards, which had a brief schedule of movies listed.
NOTE: Oddly, though the schedule listed is for CREATURE DOUBLE FEATURE, only one movie is listed for each date. Anyone know why this is? 
9.)
This is the backside of the color card Roger sent, which is identical
to the back side of the Dr. San Guinary card (#4) I personally own.
10.)
This is the backside of the card Jim Williamson sent. It features
a movie schedule for Creature Feature from 1071. This card is a real
beaut, thanks for sending a copy to the Weblab!! |
