Atom Man mask; Man from Planet X?
Is it just me, or does it look like "Atom Man"s mask got re-used as the face of "The Man from Planet X"(1951)? Of course, "Planet X" didn't have all the glitter & sequins.
Perhaps just the same mold? Anybody know?
No I don't think they are the same, but they might be both based upon some African Mask. I actually thought the Man from Planet X looked better (yeah well, it's all relative ;) )
