Easy Show - Marvel Comics Edition

I have a Kenner Easy-Show, but mine is with Hanna-Barbera characters. This one a little harder to find.

Madmae Tussaud's Guillotine!

Captain Company ad for one cool Aurora model kit. And...it really works. $1.23 is all you needed.

Here's Blood In Yor Eye!

Just a neat 1940s-1950s British paperback cover.

Eerie Pubs Covers

Eerie Publications had the damnedest covers of any horror comics ever. I recall being slightly unsettled by them as a lad.. My favorites are the humorous ones like the Witches' Tales above, and the Tales from The Tomb, with the horror artist getting his monstrous comeuppance (Myron Fass?). The Monster vs. Monster covers are cool too as The Tales Of Voodoo depicts.. 

Mid-Atlantic Newspaper Ads

Classic wrestling ads via Seth Hanson, an amazing collector of these cool windows into the past... Find him on Facebook, or Twitter The upper one is from the early 1970s, about 1972 in Greenville, S.C. ,and the bottom is earlier, say 1967, and I believe it to be from Asheville, N.C.

Cross-Weird Puzzle!

A monster movie themed crossword puzzle from a old monster mag via my buddy Ron Merchant on tumblr...

Chaney Shall Not Die!

This is a great piece on The great Lon Chaney from a 1929 Motion picture annual, illustrating him in some of his best roles at MGM Studios.

Creepy (& Eerie) Colon!

Original Art of Uncle Creepy, and Cousin Eerie by Ernie Colon.

Land Of The Giants Item...

The Remco Space Sled, inspired by ABC-TV's Land Of The Giants (1968 -1970) Neat box art, and with photos, yet!

"Art" Slides!

I still contend that illustration is cool. The implied message is that the photos are way to saucy to print in the ad! Hubba - Hubba!

Post Cereal Promotions - Early 70's Commercials!!

Archie records and more. A neat group of commercials that make me long for the days...

Funky Fireworks Labels!

I recently ran across some fireworks labels from the past. Some are well done, some look like a family member was called on for the art...
The "Monster" was a swipe from the Moon Monster ad from comic books of the 1960s.
Batman... Not so great, but Voodoo is a winner I think.

Brian Bolland Ad

Here's and ad for Forbidden Planet,  comics and more stores from The U.K. I saw this ad back in the late 1970s, of course I didn't know who Brian Bolland was then, but I was impressed. Cool and Creepy!

Starkly Sinister!

Hollywood Horror Teeth. The design and copy on this is mighty fine. It looks 1950s, but must be newer than that.

Captain Action!

 Captain Action ad from a D.C. comic above, and below, the back of Action Boy's box. These were before my time a bit, but man, had I seem 'em in the store I would've desired these rascals very much..

Lurking Fear!

This British Lovecraft paperback has the coolest cover art. I seem to recall this edition was late 1940s - early 1950s.
