wow, that's really cool. I can't believe they were all written by one guy. Thanks for sharing!

I love that photo

I'd love to see the Alfred T shirt. Here's my other shirt, chocolate milk stains still intact

Excellent rare toys, Robot Man, and love the box art. Here's some items Tee shirt available through mail order from 1965 to some time in 1968 1966 Marvel cards (66 cards to complete the set) Completed puzzle if you had all the 1966 cards (when I was a kid, the toughest card to find in the gumpacks was Thor's yellow shoe/Dardevil leg card). Anybody remember a different tough card? 1967 Stickers (55 in the set) 1967 Marx figures which came in a variety of colors

I just bought this great book from Caleb. It came super fast and he packed it securely. 5 stars! Thanks Caleb

That's a really excellent analysis

I think it it would be fun to see how many famous movie directors and artists joined the club when they were kids. Quite a few future comic book dealers were members of the club as well.

Calling all Marvelites out there. Was there any publication that compiled all the names of MMMS club members that originally appeared in issues that ran from June 1965 through April 1968? When the new club was advertised in May 1968 issues, club member names were no longer published so April 1968 titles appear to be the last issues that carried names. Thanks!

Congratulations! Nice copy. I know you've been looking for one for awhile

Solid clean cover, bright colors, and nice tight corners. Congrats!

That's a beauty!

Thanks Pat. I was thinkin someone was going to say "go to bed old man"

I never visited the Passaic Book Center, although I wanted to since I lived in New York City at the time, but I used to get their thick typewritten style catalogs regularly throughout the 70's. I remember they put them in different colors, some on blue paper or yellow and had them in separate sections for magazines, BLBs, pulps. Absolutely massive stock of paper material, far more than any dealer had at the time. They had an offshoot store called My Friend's Bookstore on Flatbush Avenue in Brooklyn. That shop was run by Manny and Dottie who were connected with Passaic. That said, I find golden age stories and art were far superior than about anything that came out in the late 60's and beyond and the new creators are just apeing or refining techniques invented by the old masters. The old books might not look as sophisticated as the multi book epics we're used to now but the artists and writers of yore knew how to tell concise stories with just a few pages and the art had a raw energy that has never been surpassed, pages had more panels and art as well, something unheard of today. Specific books that were better? Hard to narrow such a thing down, but let's say Daredevil Vs Claw stories, Torch and Subby teamup and battle issues, All Winners Squad, early Caps and early Batmans of course, early Superman, All Star JSA epics, pre-code horror, good girl books like Phantom Lady, the list goes on and on.

What's the name of the newspaper that it's from? That's from The World newspaper. Here's some more

new one

Howard has been involved in organizing celebrity shows in NY. He was also at the 2014 NY Comic Con

Kinda belongs here? More like "absolutely"

I don't know if the person I sold it to ever had it graded. It looks nice but there's a lot of color touch in the red and white stripes.

This is a Cap 1 I bought in the 90's and the second scan is after I had it restored and then I sold it. The centerfold was married with pages that had no margins and the restorer added the margins and new staples. Would probably get the extensive label. I'd love to know who has it now. RESTORED

The "other version exist" note on the MM is interesting. Has anyone had a copy with different contents?

thanks!
