Clockwise from top left. An actual victorian house on Adams Blvd. was used in the series pilot. Charles Addams redrew that house with a Mansard Roof, and gave it a rundown look. In the Hannah Barbera 1970's series, the family travelled in this haunted RV. This painting was used for establishing shots. Note although similar to Charles Addams version of his house, the house looks considerably less run down. The Model of the house used in the new Addams Family TV series, was based on the house Addams drew for the New Yorker.. Thing from the TV series. The Druid Princess was created for the series, but the series was cancelled just as the vehicle was being completed. The family as drawn by Charles Addams. An actual victorian house was used in the 1977 reunion movie. The Family from the 60's TV series.

British actress Dawn Addams (1930-1985) launched her film career in Hollywood and later appeared in many European films of the 1950’s and 1960’s as an icy, unobtainable beauty. She worked with major directors like Otto Preminger, Charles Chaplin and Fritz Lang, but despite this she had a rather undistinguished film career, in which second-rate pictures outnumbered far the quality ones.
Victoria Dawn Addams was born in 1930, in Felixstowe, England. She was the daughter of Captain James Ramage Addams, an R.A.F. officer, and Ethel Mary (née Hickie). Her mother died when she was young, and she spent her early life in Calcutta, India. She studied acting in London and started her career working for a travelling theatre company. In 1949 she made her London debut in the farce Charley’s Aunt. Her beauty and physique soon attracted the attention of talent agents. In 1950 she left for Hollywood to star in MGM movies. Her film debut was a supporting part in Night Into Morning (1951, Fletcher Markle), an intimate drama about alcoholism starring Ray Milland. She also appeared in the film noir The Unknown Man (1951, Richard Thorpe) with Walter Pidgeon, the Victorian thriller The Hour of 13 (1952, Harold French) opposite Peter Lawford, and Plymouth Adventure (1952, Clarence Brown) with Spencer Tracy, the story of the voyage of the Mayflower in its historic voyage across the Atlantic to the New World. Her roles were more decorous than substantial. Probably her best Hollywood film was the risqué (for its time) comedy The Moon Is Blue (1953, Otto Preminger) starring William Holden, David Niven and Maggie McNamara. She also appeared in a supporting part in the German version, Die Jungfrau auf dem Dach (1953, Otto Preminger), with Hardy Krüger, Johannes Heesters and Johanna Matz. The Moon is Blue helped to end the system of self-censorship of Hollywood films, which had been in place since 1934. In 1953 Dawn also embarked on a USO tour to help entertain the troops in Korea, followed by a small but heavily publicized role as Richard Carlson's model girlfriend in the Sci-Fi film Riders to the Stars (1954, Richard Carlson).
Dawn Addams returned to Europe to continue her film career in the European cinema. In Italy she starred in the sensational war film Mizar/Frogwoman (1954, Francesco De Robertis). Thanks to her lofty family lineage, she moved in the best social circles. During the production of Mizar she met the Prince of Roccasecca, Vittorio Massimo, and married him. In the following years she appeared in several second-rate pictures but also played in a few quality films including Charles Chaplin's bitter comedy A King In New York (1956), wherein Dawn had her best role as an American commercial actress. She played opposite Laurence Harvey in the war film The Silent Enemy (1958, William Fairchild), and opposite Brigitte Bardot in Voulez-vous danser avec moi?/Come Dance with Me! (1959, Michel Boisrond). The following year she starred in the thriller Die 1000 Augen des Dr. Mabuse/The Thousand Eyes of Dr. Mabuse (1960), the last film of director Fritz Lang. Despite this she had an undistinguished film career, in which second-rate pictures far outnumber the quality ones. “Was her beauty too smooth or were her acting talents limited or both?”, aks the reviewer on IMDb. In the early 1960’s Dawn appeared in a some more good films, including The Two Faces of Dr. Jekyll (1960, Terence Fisher) starring Paul Massie and Christopher Lee, the Gustave Flaubert adaptation L’éducation sentimentale/Sentimental Education (1962, Alexandre Astruc) with Jean-Claude Brialy, the swashbuckler La tulipe noire/The Black Tulip (1964, Christian-Jaque) starring Alain Delon, and the swinging-60’s-London-cheesecake Ballad in Blue (1964, Paul Henreid), top-billing soul singer Ray Charles as himself. From then on she mostly appeared on television, for example in series like Danger Man (1964), The Saint (1963-1966) - which starred Roger Moore as Simon Templar, the sitcom Father Dear Father (1971-1973), the campy sci-fi serial Star Maidens (1977), the soap opera Crossroads (1977), and finally Triangle (1983). Her last feature film was the B-horror film The Vault of Horror (1973, Roy Ward Baker). Dawn Addams died in 1985, in London, reportedly from cancer. She was married twice. From 1954 till 1971 she was married to Don Vittorio Emanuele Massimo. They had one son, Prince Stefano Massimo (1955). After their separation they had a much publicized feud about their son. In 1974 Addams married Jimmy White.

Cartoonist Charles Addams works at his drawing table in his New York apartment on Jan. 12, 1982. Addams, 69, doesn't understand why his fans seem to think he is a "gourmet of the ghoulish." His cartoons which make everyday happenings look sinister and bizarre are always done with humor. "I'm not trying to say anything," says the creator of the Addams Family. "I'm just trying to be funny...I think I'm a normal American boy." (AP Photo/Ron Frehm)
