Post Your Comic Book Related Memorabilia!!

[esquirecomics]

Having had the pleasure of enjoying the thousands of items in Geppi's Entertainment Museum last week, I felt compelled to purchase a little piece of comic book history.

 

The Golden Age witnessed not only the spark of interest among children of comic books but also the mass marketing of the characters into all different venues. Most of the items are not expensive, but some obviously cost through the roof.

 

No doubt many of us have collectibles (toys, games, records, etc) that are based on some of our favorite comic book characters so lets post them here!

 

I purchased this one at the Baltimore Comic Con this week. It is from 1944.

Not sure if this counts or not (if not, I apologize) but here's a pic I took the other day that shows the envelope that Famous Funnies: A Carnival of comics was shipped in. (Back in the days prior to comic book stores, cover prices, etc.)

We'll let the envelope count.

I remember that! What great toys.

 

Wasn't there another shelf or two?

[Weird Paper]

Or three or four...

I love the Popeye toys, just too cool!

Thanks. My own favorite is the Dagwood airplane.

Those are awesome Roger!! Most of my memorabilia is long gone. I just have the statues now from the last twenty years.

Thanks. I think there must be a gene for collecting. Even when I try to stop collecting stuff, I still find myself perusing antique shops and bookstores.

Fawcett was real heavy into flying Captain Marvel items in the 1940s! I keep seeing them.

 

Anyone know exactly where they would have been sold? Drugstores? Soda shops?

I believe there was a find of the flyers in the 70's or 80's
