Bugs Bunny Meets the Superheroes Souvenir Book This is one of the happier finds I’ve had this year, not only do I collect memorabilia from this mid 1970s stage show but it’s a coloring book to boot. If that wasn’t enough, this item teaches me a little bit about the show itself which is good because […]
Magnus sent over this great piece circa 1986-1987 with Spider-Man at the Rural Association Expo in Uruguay, at the US Embassy Pavillion, at a Polaroid promo booth. I’ve never had a South American mall appearance and honestly, I’m not sure I’m gonna get more, so I’m thrilled to have this! Send me your mall appearance […]
The folks at Good Old Vintage sent over a snap of this awesome Captain America appearance poster, sadly it’s already been sold. As a collector of such things, it’s amazing to see a poster for Cap, who likely less in demand than Spider-Man. I heart this…. Send me your mall appearance photos!
Part two of the stereo store visit pictures from Francis shows him getting into a sticky situation with customer service. This is a pretty brilliant Darth Vader and Chewbacca appearance, there was much more home made versions running around…. I thought you might enjoy these pics from 1978. Back story: It was announced (I think in a […]
Francis sent in a pair of awesome Star Wars appearance shots this week, I’ll start with this awesome Chewbacca and let him explain. I thought you might enjoy these pics from 1978. Back story: It was announced (I think in a newspaper ad) that Darth Vader and Chewbacca were both making an appearance at a […]
Dylan (pictured in the middle just below Darth’s fusebox) sent in this wonderful shot from 1977 when the dark lord of the sith popped into a, Iron Mountain, MI Burger Chef for lunch. Actually he was there to promote the Burger Chef giveaway premiums (which by the way are completely awesome, why didn’t you guys […]
Brooke sent in a pile of cool clippings for Star Wars Mall Appearances, I love this one for Clover (?) stores which also hawks SW underwear, bedding and records. He also sent me this rare trading card. I am so angry that I didn’t think of this as a kid! Brooke’s website is called VintageQuixotic.com, […]
Derec sent in this Darth Vader appearance shot from a mall in Metairie LA. I think the Fonzie shirt pretty much dates this one. Derec mentions that this isn’t the first time we’ve seen this backdrop and he’s right: Eric sent in this Empire era shot a few years back, great eye Derec! Send me […]
I got an email from Mark this week who actually apologized for “adding to my pile of Darth Vader appearances” (he did get around) and then opened the photos. What Mark doesn’t realize is there is few things I like better in this life than…. Weird, homemade Star Wars costume appearances! Oh, I could hug […]
Batman and the Orange Hand My friend Todd from Hake’s Americana sent me this incredible bit of 1970s weirdness. It’s a UK promotional catalog where Batman solves a case inexplicably by buying a young boy some polyester pants and a few sweaters. Never has there ever been an item so fitting to what this website […]
