*Horror 1940-1959: For a handful of issues in 1954, ACG experimented with ‘3-D Truevision – light and color without glasses’ on their flagship title Adventures Into The Unknown, where a black border was used around the cover and around the internal panels, with people and things overlapping the panel borders, thus appearing to step out of the panels. It was, perhaps surprisingly, quite effective. It’s a shame that the one example of it we have here is a low grade Fair copy, with lots of spine and edge wear and colour-breaking creases. The staples aren’t bad (lower off at centrefold) and the page quality okay. The stories are strong on graves, ghouls, monsters, decapitations and a peculiar vampire/werewolf hybrid, as seen on the cover.
