The Invisible Monster Republic Serial

TOM STEELE IS THE STUNT MAN.

Webb was a fantastic actor.

Yes, Powder and explosives are always stored in the black smith's shop, right near the forge.

Climbing a mountain with skirt, heels, hat, gloves and purse😓!

All the hats in this series need their own thug life glasses 😁😁

A thinly veiled allegory about fifth column communists. Go get 'em Republic!

Yeah! ..Problem is , to be invisible PR needs a guy to follow him with a big spotlight!

Jeff just enjoys making Mini John James Johnson in July

John Hamilton from Superman Perry White also played in this serial but his name was not in the credits I wonder why

Such lousy shots!

CHARActer actors---young Lane Bradford and John Crawford. Johnny Rifleman Crawford came later, the kid was no relation. Bradford did dozens of westerns, always seemed to play a heavy. Was also in another serial Zombies of the Stratosphere w/Leonard Nimoy. Crawford did all kinds of movies and tv. Thin here and he looks like hell w/that moustache. Amusing sexism in this serial about what the gal can and can't do.Why is her purse not locked in the trunk? Great cars and always great fights. Usually it takes two thugs to get the good guy.

Republic always had 2 set decorators. One to set up fixtures and furniture and one to haul it all to the trash after a fight scene.

They sure use up a lot of ammunition. I certainly admire their skill driving those cars, fast, over dirt or gravel roads

The only two things which make this watchable is the good fighting and how corny each episode is. I enjoyed it most of time.
Thanks

I haven't started watching the serial, yet, but thought I would read the comments first.
Hats off to all the absolutely hilarious comments here, even the poster of the serial got in a few choice zingers. Thanks to all for a very hilarious read.

These men sure like a good punch up.
Must glue their hats on.

Must be the American way, greet everyone with gunfire.

In regard to the hats staying on, Back in those days men wore "fitted" hats. These are non adjustable hats which fit specific head sizes. Thus they stay on better than todays adjustable hats.
Also sometimes to help conceal the stunt mens the hats where were pinned/clipped on.

Republic Serial: the home of unlimited supply of furniture to throw&smash at an opponent.

I'd like to see the Police get the best of those thugs fighting wise.

AND, that woman hasn't got one ounce of spunk, or fight
in her, she just folds and plops
on the floor ! Just Incredible !

AND why wasn't she trying to shoot at the trucks tires that was in front of them driving on
Topanga Canyon Road, at least that's what it looks like to me, and I've lived in Malibu for 60 years.

Are you gonna tell me, that that guy that is facing that window with the louvers, and he doesn't see the louvers open up, for that shot to be fired through those louvers?

I swear, even things that are right in front of them, don't get noticed. Just Incredible !!
And I mean, SMACK DAB IN
FRONT OF THEM !!!!!!

How many cars does Lane have??? 😅🍿🍿🍺

Ring them in…I’ll pass sentence…… holy sheets!
Ooooh nooooo baked monster! 😂🤣
How funny the light is a 40s hair dryer!😂😂😅😂🤣😂😅😊

Basically "paper clip"

I like the old cars in them

They sure do not make hats like they use to.

"Great Caesars' Ghost". Perry White of The Daily Planet is a criminal.

They go through a lot of vehicles.

The series should have been called Variations on a Fist Fight!

Thanks for sharing

😃Thank you 🥰👍

Why does Carol need to carry a handbag with her, she's a good shot.

Great quality print!

Po favor manda legendado em portugues

Why I have to go back to school, and the others have a job.

And his hat 🎩, is still on love ❤️ it

Thanks AtomicAgePictures!
Greetings from France!

Editor Perry White of Superman . Richard Webb as Captain Midnight ,

Isn't it a little easy to see where he is? He is standing inside that pool of light we we can SEE!

Beat the heck out of each other don’t even lose thier hats or get a mark on them. One looks like Perry White

When do we get to see the invisible monster?

Not as good as the others
