Turn up your old Zenith radio! Here is the latest news as it develops from The Living Dead Festival (http://thelivingdeadfest.com)...

In order to commemorate an unprecedented gathering of 14 cast & crew members from the original Night of the Living Dead in Evans City, PA where the film was shot, limited edition autograph cards will be available from the guests at the event. Actual size is 2½" x 3½" like most standard trading cards with spooktacular high-quality UV-coated printing on both sides.

Here's a sneak peek...

Festival attendees will be able to collect all their favorite Night of the Living Dead signatures on these official autograph cards. And since the event is being held smack dab in the middle of living dead country, you just never know who might show up unannounced... ;)

What about those that are not fortunate enough to be able to attend the festival? Any way we could get (i.e. purchase) a complete set of these cards? And possibly a set of AUTOGRAPHED cards? If there were no plans to make these available after fact, consider this 'food for thought'.....

Philly, there were only two styles of autograph card produced, about 500 of each and they were given to all of the guests to sign and hand out for free at the festival. Here are some examples:

The back of both cards is the same. I don't know if anyone was able to put together a complete set with all the signatures. I sure didn't--it was way too crazy with 17 guests there.

How about a complete set WITHOUT autographs?

That would be 2 cards Philly.

That's right, there were only two cards produced, Philly, and there isn't much to them: just a photo montage and logo on each with the festival date and location on back:

This was primarily done to have some type of commemorative item for the festival guests to autograph, as well as to float the idea of a high quality Night of the Living Dead card set. ;)

I must have been falling asleep as I was reading the posts here! :)

I think I understand now. The back is pretty cool! Glad you posted that pic!

I guess the real question I want to ask is.....are there any of either of the two cards left, signed or unsigned, and if so, anyway I can get any?
