A fun old picture of Geppi with some of his key books...

[Red Hook]

Real men simply got the picture or drawing right to begin with, and didn't need any electronic tampering.

 

Oh, I've got boxes of pre-computer stuff down in my basement. Trust me.

 

 

 

circa 1982 (heavy into Giger at the time.)

[Red Hook]

From Analog magazine @ 1979...... good ol' rapidograph.....I always thought it looked like a microwave orbiting the planet.

 

[Red Hook]

Last one, I promise. Pencil for Twilight Zone magazine.....mid 80's.

Was this meant to be a poster for another Food of the Gods movie titled

Microwave Popcorn of the Gods

Come to think of it, the front of the ship looks an awful lot like a Jiffy Pop..... fly close enough to the sun and POP, POP, POP

Perhaps you were hungry at the time?

 

 

And keep the scans coming Brad, with all the Mstrylux threads lately, this is a much needed ,and very enjoyable diversion.

Awesome stuff

Man....back in the old days, we all played with comics with no mylars.

Here's an outtake from the session I did for an old Overstreet Ad.

4 or 5 have Mylars to hold them in place and maybe 7 or 8 had boards behind them

and everything else was just thrown on top of each other.

 

[Timulty]

It looks like you actually have....gasp......MONEY!!!!

[Silver Surfer]

What a dream collection, three copies of Cap #1. Zilla do you still own most of those comics in that pile.

[Red Hook]

That is a great picture! What year was that ZIll?

[Crowzilla]

It was from late 1991. The first time the ad saw print was in Overstreet #22 (the Spidey v. Goblin cover issue).

Unfortunately most of the books are now long gone (I was a dealer you know), but I have squirrelled away a few things over the years.

ahhh. back in the days when they were just 'comic books'... not CDs or 'investment vehicles!'

[tth2]

ahhh. back in the days when they were just 'comic books'... not CDs or 'investment vehicles!'

That would be 1971, not 1991.

[Aman619]

umm, good point. I wasnt listening! :^ )

[Dr_Neff]

The other books look like they are in mylar so maybe Geppi took them out to prevent glare on the lens? I doubt he would have props like that laying around, why do that when you have enough of the real thing?

 

Besides he is missing 3 better books from the set, being All American 16, Motion Picture Funnies Weekly and Marvel Comics # 1 October copy

 

of course they could be Flashback copies - does anyone have a flashback checklist?

 

besides I like the photo of Geppi and Clinton holding a copy of Fan # 1 - now That's power..
