That Thing/Dr. Doom notepad was part of the original M.M.M.S kit, and were a freebie to member that ordered the 1965 Merry Marvel Swinging Stationery kit. They can be found on eBay but are often missing pages. There is a Dr. Doom envelope from the Marvelmania International fan club that was to return merchandise orders in that has Doom saying, "Doom If Ya Don't" and can be found on eBay too. -

Up for sale are Strange Tales 114 - $300 and Fantastic Four King Size Special #6 - $500. Domestic shipping is $20 per book, sorry no international buyers. Payment by check, USPS money order or Paypal. No resto on FF and cannot guarantee what CGC will grade it at but it was bought from Mile High comics in the mid-1980's as Fine+. Nor returns. Any questions please ask.

This week in your collection?
TellshiarMarvelmaniaCollector replied to Currin Comics's topic in Comics General
Here is a warehouse find, unused and awesome. I rarely see Marvel Comics ICEE and Slurpee cups store displays, but I have never seen a KooLee one. This is from 1978, double-sided and great John Romita art for the Hulk. It's meant to be hung from the ceiling with four of the twenty cups. Has anyone else come across any or remember seeing the KooLee ones from childhood? I also found the rare Master of Kung Fu patch (1977), a 1978 Hulk Hula hoop promo button (From UK) and the 1978 Spider-Man clock (large version) unused graphic. -

Very cool. That was the only Marvel Comics flyer with all color graphics. A nice find. -
It's amazing what is still waiting to be uncovered in attics, basements, garages and storage facilities. I bought some items from a collector who got this from an ex-Ohio Arts Toy Company employee. The Captain America, Spider-Man and Thor versions are rare and very cool, but had this one been produced I think it would have looked the nicest and the most valuable. This vacuform mold is probably the only remaining proof of this scrapped project. These were the merchandise days before Marvel established strict guidelines for art and release style guides to companies. I liked the design from Ohio Arts because they are pretty accurate with just a bit of crudeness.

This warehouse find is something several comic book industry experts (and several major collectors) haven't seen. It was created by Simon And Schuster to advertise their Marvel Comics Fireside Books (1974-1978). This is approximately 40 x 50 inches and definitely would have been seen at trade shows and literary venues, back in the late-1970's. The only problem for a collector would be the framing cost and the space to hang it at. Anyone else seen this before or any other Simon And Shuster posters?

Well, maybe this old art price guide from the famous New York comic store SuperSnipe can help. It is from 1977 and shows prices for X-Men 98 and Giant-Size #1. These prices would make me think around $15-$20. $45 with Fed Ex shipping included. Contact me if interested in selling. Rick or Corey from Pawn Stars would only give you $5-$7 as they have to make a profit.

Hello everyone. I just picked this gem up from an auction where it wasn't identified properly. This is the cover art for Gold Key's UFO and Outer Space #22, from 1979. I had this comic as a kid and loved it. When I saw this art I immediately recognized it. What was cool was that of all the covers in the series this was the only one that proposed the popular and controversial "Ancient Alien" philosophy outlook. The small label on the lower right shows it was part of the Random House collection. I don't believe this is Luis Dominguez, who did the art for several others in this series, so any information would be helpful and appreciated. Thanks!

Thanks. Monogram made the Marvel and DC magnets: On their backsides was a magnet and a double sided adhesive strip. The Captain Britain has neither, only a pin fastener. I think it is a great character and costume.

Thanks for these great pics and your research. It is impressive that you knew the year from the color of the label. I bought it mostly because it still had its mailer. I would have been disappointed if I ordered the shirt in the AD but received something else.

Thanks, I am glad it continues to be a mystery and gives me more reason to continue researching!

Hi Gary, yes I was the one that bought it. I convinced the UK seller to ship to the USA. I had seen repros of it on eBay USA but I only collect originals.

Gary, do you know the origins of this Captain Britain badge? I bought it because it was cool and is in the same design and materials as the 1977 Marvel Comics magnets. It is not dated but has to be pre-1982 when his costume changed. I am not sure if this was a free gift, merchandise from ad or promo given to fans. Any info would be helpful. Thanks!
