    JayMar Universal Monsters Mummy puzzle



    I made a great find at a nearby Peddlers Mall today, a 1963 Jaymar Universal Monsters Mummy puzzle. Definitely the oldest piece of Universal merch I've found in the wild.

    I have long admired how twisted these are. Kharis carrying a still living, but half-mummified victim off. A lizard and a cat apparently eating a corpse. A despondent woman crying in the corner. And a random skeletal ghoul rising from the crypt. I want to see this movie!

    Congratulations on a great find. I think this might be my favorite Jaymar puzzle, as to my mind it tells more of a story and is not diluted with other monsters.
    WANTED: Dick Grayson SI trousers; gray AJ Mustang horse; vintage RC Batman (Bruce Wayne) head; minty Wolfman tights; mint Black Knight sword; minty Launcelot boots; Lion Rock (pale) Dracula & Mummy heads; Lion Rock Franky squared boots; Wayne Foundation blue furniture; Flash Gordon/Ming (10") unbroken holsters; CHiPs gloved arms; POTA T2 tan body; CTVT/vintage Friar Tuck robes, BBP TZ Burgess Meredith glasses.

      Yeah, it's odd that the Mummy didn't have to share his puzzle, considering he's probably the least popular of the "big three" monsters that are on the other puzzles. Frankenstein's Monster is in each of the other three!
