Item Description
Set of three 3.5" dia. buttons. Text reads "I Like Roland," "My Dear," referring to his wife and "Where's Igor?" referring to his lab assistant. Character was portrayed by John Zacherle on WCAU-TV Channel 10 as host of "Shock Theater" from Oct. 7, 1957-Sept. 13, 1958. Dick Clark supposedly gave Zacherle the nickname "The Cool Ghoul." In 1958, Zacherle cut "Dinner With Drac" for Cameo Records and moved to New York City television where his shows included the 1960s Chiller Theatre on WPIX. All Fine-VF w/wear only visible in reflected light. Scarce as a set.
