This is the Basil Gogos painting that appeared on
Famous Monsters Of Filmland #18. Thought to be Dwight Frye as Reinfield from 1931's
Dracula, this is actually Bernard Jukes who played Reinfield opposite Bela Lugosi in the stage version. This was one of several makeup shots he took while campaigning for the role in the film. As we all know, Dwight Frye was cast. Still he is responsible for one of the most striking images in horror film history.
