Description

Following many years of research and featuring hundreds of amazing images – many rare and previously unpublished – we present The Karloff Compendium. The most comprehensive book about Boris Karloff's numerous film roles, including several recently discovered movies, plus selected highlights from TV, radio, theatrical work and more! The Karloff Compendium is the latest book by Stephen Jacobs, the writer of the Rondo Award winning biography Boris Karloff: More Than a Monster and presents a fascinating pictorial journey through the life of ‘The King of Horror’ – Boris Karloff. Born in South London in 1887 as William Henry Pratt, Karloff emigrated to Canada in 1909 where he began touring Western Canada and the United States in various theatrical repertory groups. Arriving in Hollywood in 1919 Karloff began movie work as an extra, working his way to eventual international fame as the monster in Universal’s Frankenstein (1931). Karloff continued to work in film, on radio, television and stage until he died in 1969, aged 81. With a foreword by the actor’s only child, his daughter, Sara Jane Karloff, The Karloff Compendium includes many images from the horror star’s own collection alongside stills and posters – many of them rare – from his numerous screen appearances and comprehensive text which delves into his life and career to give a comprehensive portrait of one of Hollywood’s most iconic actors. Hundreds of rare posters, adverts and images - over 900! Karloff's Filmography fully explored Selected TV appearances Selected radio appearances Books, records etc Cover illustration by Graham Humphreys Full colour throughout Set to be the last word on the famous actor's vast body of work. An essential purchase for any fan!
