MARSHA HUNT to Appear at This Year’s 5th Annual Mid-Atlantic Nostalgia Convention.
Posted by Steve under Conventions[5] Comments
Marsha Hunt, the female co-star of Kid Glove Killer (1942), reviewed here by Walter Albert, and whose career was discussed at length in the comments that followed, is scheduled to make an appearance at this year’s Mid-Atlantic Nostalgia Convention.
Other guests include:
VAN WILLIAMS (Surfside 6, The Green Hornet)
ROY THINNES (The Invaders)
DAWN WELLS (Mary Ann on Gilligan’s Island)
MARK GODDARD (Johnny Ringo, Lost in Space)
GERI REISCHL (Jan Brady on The Brady Bunch Hour)
ED NELSON (Peyton Place and tons of TV and Roger Corman films)
WILL HUTCHINS (Sugarfoot, Hey Landlord, Blondie)
ON DISPLAY! The original 1966 Chrysler Imperial Black Beauty from the Green Hornet TV series! There were only two made and one of them resides in a museum in California. The other is owned by a private collector who fully restored the vehicle and will have it on display at the convention. (This is not a replica!)
For more information, check out the convention’s website here.
I wish I could be there, but perhaps you can. From all accounts, the convention is getting bigger and better every year.

This convention which is put on by author and dvd dealer Martin Grams, is as Steve notes, getting bigger and better each year. I’ve attended a couple and the emphasis in the dealer’s room is on dvds of older films and TV series. I remember some old radio shows being available and of course the guests, many of them from the old TV shows. Books and magazines did not seem to be big sellers at the two shows I attended.

Following up on Marsha Hunt’s career … she’s still active, having appeared in the 2008 short film “The Grand Inquisitor” written and directed by Shamus-award winning novelist and film noir expert Eddie Muller. You can watch it on YouTube if you’re so inclined, and you should be. It’s a hell of a piece of work.

That’s quite a performance, Vince. Thanks for the link. This short 20 minute story on film is one I’ll remember for quite a while.
PS. As one commenter asked, What’s under the table?

I can also attest to the great time to be had at Martin Gram’s Nostalgia event. I missed a couple, but have been at the others since the beginning and have watched it grow exponentially. There is never a dull moment as something is always going on. The problem is that there isn’t enough time on my schedule to see and hear all I want to hear.
Highly recommended.
