Item Description
Large 3-3/8" button featuring art image of popular horror host with rim text reading "©Zacherly Lic. Sid Rubin Enterprises-Mfg. Imprint Art." Zacherly was portrayed by John Zacherle on WCAU-TV Philadelphia's Channel 10 as host of "Shock Theater" from Oct. 7, 1957 to Sept. 13, 1958. Dick Clark supposedly gave Zacherle the nickname "The Cool Ghoul." In 1958, Zacherly cut "Dinner With Drac" for Cameo Records and moved to New York City television where his shows included the 1960s Chiller Theater on WPIX. Text on this button reads "Vote For Zacherly" and a skull appears over his shoulder. Reverse has rough surface oxidation marks but only on 10% of metal back and the cello is high gloss NM. We've seen two of this pink version and one green version. This is the button photographed for page 35 of Button Power by Carter/Hake. Comes w/Hake's COA.
