Trivia
Saved and kept all of the laboratory equipment that was used in both Frankenstein (1931) and The Bride of Frankenstein (1935) in working order in his garage. When director Mel Brooks was filming Frankenstein Trẻ (1974), Strickfaden lent out all of it to 20th Century Fox for its use in the film and personally took care to make sure that it worked properly.
