Addams In-Person style!
Ted Cassidy and Jackie Coogan appear in Tucson, AZ in 1964. With Horror Host Dr. Scar, and Marshall KGUN. Somehow, the good Marshall is the odd man out here...

Crayola Fluorescent Colors
IN the early 1970s I found these, and had a ball with them. I never could understand why these smelled so different from the regular crayons... I was always smelling of stuff. I think mom was beginning to get worried..

The Sheik Button
A cool button of The Sheik (Ed Farhat) from the 1970s is an early example of Pro Wrestling merchandising. I'd wear it!

George Was Topps!
Sticker #43 - George via Topps. Ugly Stickers (1965). I remember getting a pack from a small neighborhood store. Very early memory. Wally Wood, and Norman Saunders did the art on these stickers.

The Official Munsters Magazine
One of my most valued items is this 1964 magazine. I saw one as a kid, and it took forever to find one! Win a phone call from Herman!

Batman & Robin LP
I always wanted this album. I used to see the ad for it in the back of Famous Monsters Of Filmland, but alas, I never pulled the trigger. Maybe someday.
Big Little Books
I used to love these as a kid, and I am trying to find the ones from the 1967 - 1969 era. There are reprints that have soft covers, but I look for the original hardcover books. They were big on TV shows, & comic characters. By Whitman
Apple Jacks For Snuffles
An interesting cereal box from Kellogg's. It has Hanna-Barbera characters Hokey Wolf, and Snuffles on this Apple Jacks box. Apparently it was sold in Canadian grocery stores. It just seems odd that two of Hanna-Barbera's lesser (though great) characters made their way to a Kellogg's box. Long live Snuffles!

Mattel Herman Munster Puppet
A Herman Munster puppet that looks to be in great shape. I had one of these as a lad, and I wish I could've kept it in good shape like this one, but that's not very realistic for a 3 to 4 year old boy..
1963 Stag Film Ad
A funky old ad from the April 1963 issue of Frolic. I think the expression on the guy's face is hilarious. The sweat is a nice touch. The gal is shocked to say the least...
Dark Shadows Gum Cards Boxes
The two display boxes are from the two series' of Dark Shadows gum cards. The pink series was released in 1968, and the green series are from 1969. Loved 'em. I have a few (plus a wrapper from the green series), and I'm always looking for more! Made by Philadelphia Gum.
Wrestling Guide April 1974
My first wrestling magazine. I got it because there was an article about Mid-Atlantic Wrestling in it. All the other mags seemed to focus on New York, Los Angeles, St. Louis, and other territories. I wish I could find more of these mags.
Girl Vampire!
A Captain Company ad detail from a Topstone masks ad, c.1964. This is an iconic bit of design, and I am thinking about getting this tattooed somewhere on my person. It would have to be an exact match though....
DC On TV
This is a DC comic book ad from 1967 promoting The Batman show on ABC, and The Filmation Super-Heroes Saturday morning show on CBS. TV was cool then.

Bullwinkle Bumper
Here's a look at the NBC-TV bumper for the Bullwinkle Show, which was a spin-off of ABC-TV's Rocky and His Friends. The Bullwinkle Show aired from 1961-1964 on NBC, then from 1964-1973 on ABC. Initially seen on Sunday Evenings, it found it's way to Saturday and Sunday morning time slots. Jay Ward was the creator / producer.
Marvel Super-Heroes (1966)
Here's an ad for the Syndicated 1966 Grantray-Lawrence Marvel Super-Heroes show. The animation wasn't the greatest, but it was neat. It also featured the coolest theme songs since ABC-TV's Spider-Man show (Also a Grantray-Lawrence show, natch!) The Iron Man song is my favorite...

Rare Kiss Ticket
Remember Kiss Meets The Phantom Of The Park? It was a 1978 Made-For-TV movie that aired on NBC. The concert scenes were shot at Magic Mountain, which makes for a one of a kind show. They did a a version of "Hotter Than Hell"...well, you just gotta hear it I think..Hehehe..
Elvis vs. Frankenstein!
Elvis Meets Frankenstein! Jailhouse Rock vs. Curse Of Frankenstein in this classic ad for the Parkway Theatre, in W. Jefferson, North Carolina.. (1957)
Aurora Meets Dark Shadows!
What a great addition this would have made to the 1969 Aurora Monster Scenes line of model kits! Alas, it is a fan-made / fantasy display box The art is from the Gold Key Dark Shadows comic books. Via The Collinsport Historical Society.
Gordon Solie and Vince?
Here's a mystery photo. I never knew Gordon Solie made any appearances on WWWF television shows. This was clearly in the mid-seventies, and has an HBO dingbat in the corner of this screencap. Anyone know?
Ernie Roth Gets His!
A great gag photo from the early 1960s which has The Sheik, and Bruiser double teaming Ernie Roth, better known as The Grand Wizard, AKA Mr. Klean
Aurora Poster
This was a great in-store poster for the line of Aurora Monsters model kits, circa 1965. [Click to enlarge image] Insanely cool.
Transylvania Peoples Party
This is one cool item. A Zacherley (Here spelled Zacherly) Official Campaign Kit from 1960. The kit contains Stickers, Buttons, and assorted other goodies. A 10 on the Cool Ghoul scale.

Milton The Monster
Milton The Monster was a great ABC-TV funny monster cartoon that aired on Saturday, and later Sunday mornings from 1965 - 1968. It was a clever well-written show, that also had segments Fearless Fly, Stuffy Derma (!) and others. The best Hal Seegar show.
The Milton-Bradley game was one of the few examples of Milton merchandise.
