Movie Monster Museum's Collection of authentic Ackermuseum relics. Forry Ackerman, the one time editor of Famous Monsters of Filmland magazine, once owned one of the largest collections of science fiction, fantasy and horror books, autographs, posters and movie props. When Forry had a stroke, he decided to downsize his amazing collection through various auctions, eBay sellers and even a yard sale! All of the items on this page came from Forry's collection. Many include a certificate of authenticity signed or initialed by Forry.
