Yellow Kid Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 Some great Disney items, which are my favorites! That MM pinback is a real beauty as is the set of NOMA lights in that beautiful box--it's one of the nicest sets that I've seen. There are so many great Disney Christmas items that I'm sure we will see more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robot Man Posted December 7, 2015 Author Share Posted December 7, 2015 Sorry to interrupt Christmas, but did you ever find these? RDs with Anti-comic book articles? 7th story down the list: 2nd story down the list: Yes, I did have them but made copies and gave the originals to another SOTI collector years ago. In the late '70's my self and a fellow named Robert Nastasi (currently has a comic shop in upstate New York I think), were collecting censhorship books like crazy. We sent a TON of info to Bob Overstreet. After a few years, I got a little bored with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robot Man Posted December 7, 2015 Author Share Posted December 7, 2015 18 days until Christmas... And since Ameri was so good to post his beautiful Mickey Mouse light set, I might as well post mine. It is the same as his but has twice the amount of lights and was made in Great Britain at the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robot Man Posted December 8, 2015 Author Share Posted December 8, 2015 17 days to Christmas... Since this is what got me into this whole mess, I just have to post some vintage MAD covers. These are a couple of my favorites: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robot Man Posted December 8, 2015 Author Share Posted December 8, 2015 This one is my favorite. It just portrays the mood and spirit of the holidays.You can just fill the chill. Kelly Freas, in my opinion did the most iconic covers. Way more so than Norman Mingo who is known as the top MAD cover artist. He ain't no slouch either but Kelly's covers just had "that look" for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just transferred this over from the group shot thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't seen the flip-side in so long that I didn't remember the gender switch backcover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robot Man Posted December 9, 2015 Author Share Posted December 9, 2015 I've always loved this one. Beautiful colors and pretty hard to find. Christmas never looked like this at my house... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robot Man Posted December 10, 2015 Author Share Posted December 10, 2015 15 days to Christmas... Here's something you guys have probably never seen. These are call "Psycho Ceramics" they were made by the Kress pottery company in the late 1950's/early 1960's. They are real weird organic humorous characters. At one time I had over 100 different but sold most of them. I kept these two Christmas ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robot Man Posted December 11, 2015 Author Share Posted December 11, 2015 Speaking of give-a-ways, these were given out by department stores for the most part. These are all from 1896 to the mid fifties. They are fun to collect and are very colorful. Plus, always a conversation topic when I wear one to work or a party.

David P Hartman Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 Is the grease pencil a pedigree thing? Ever try a silk or nylon stocking for removing arrival dates,or overachieving archives collector's secret library inventory system alphanumeric embellishments? I've seen cactus stickers removed, using them as well when running the material over the pricked area. The replaced fan belts are a MacGyver trick. Fish nets don't work as well, but the field work can be rewarding. Or is this trespassing into restoration concerns? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
