THE GREAT £26,400 CAPE CAPER: THEBLACKBOXCLUB.COM

For some fans, buying an original still or poster from a Hammer Film is a real treat. At £50 or even £250 we usually expect to dig a little deeper into our pocket money, for a vintage item. So, the opportunity to purchase a REAL 'one-off' piece of cinema history, would of course carrying a price tag much bigger than our vintage £1.00 'On The Buses' quad... in fact, around £26,399 much bigger! 

In the case of buying the original Dracula cloak, made by BERMANS for Hammer films 1958 'DRACULA', one would hope that anyone shelling out such an asking price would do a little research before signing on the dotted line.... Hmm, find out what we discovered...!

More to come....MAY 2011 HAMMER DRACULA MONTH!
