Vader visits the Empire……State Building
The idea of having this fan club meeting in the Empire State building is genius, too bad that whole “Star Wars” fad never really caught on… Send me your mall appearance photos!
Friend Good!
Here are some of the first few fun pics submitted for our 2010 Halloween Countdown Contest (which is still open BTW) these come to us from Jon of Pop Culture Central and it’s him and his brother meeting the Frankenstein Monster at Universal stuidos in the 80s. I rarely get sent classic Monster Appearances so it’s blast to […]
A Wonderful Appearance
This MD area ad shows a rare 1977 appearance by Wonder Woman at the Valley Mall. While it makes sense given her TV popularity, she rarely did appearances, most likely because it was easier to shove a thin guy into a Spiedy costume than it was to find somebody to wear the tiara and tights. […]
Spidey teams up with Brian and Phil?
Brian (great name!) sent in this fun image of him and his brother Phillip around 1982 at the Willowbrook Mall in Houston,TX. What a killer shot! Send me your mall appearance photos!
Caught in Spidey’s Web
Part two of Russ’s great shots in the now-closed Century Plaza mall in Birmingham, AL circa 1979. This is a really great image, love the colours in the background, very striking! Thanks so much for Russ sharing these great images! Send me your mall appearance photos!
Hulk HUG!
Russ sent in this KILLER shot of him with the Hulk (can’t decide who looks more please, the Hulk or Russ) in what he believes is the late 1970s in the now-closed Century Plaza mall in Birmingham, AL. “Now closed mall” always makes me sad to hear. Thanks Russ! Send me your mall appearance photos!
Spider-Man will be here on……..
I got a wonderful surprise in the electronic mail box this week with this contribution from Lynch (who showcases his incredible Marvel Comics merchandise collection on his MyEbay page trust me, you need to visit that) it’s a rare poster used for 1970s appearances by webhead himself. What’s even better is the demonstration picture that came […]
The Marvel Superheroes go to Washington
It doesn’t more 70s than this, the Marvel Superheroes (including Spider-Woman, whom I’ve had a crush on since 1979, *sigh*) and the Carter family. For those wondering, that is absolutely Jonathan Frakes as Captain America there. I never expected to have a shot like this so close to the last one but it’s a most welcome surprise. […]
Dark Lord of the Atari
Hopping the pond to the UK for this Mall Appearance which happened in the early 1980s when Darth Vader himself dropped in on a “Toymaster” (great name) shop to promote the Empire Strikes Back Video cartridges that I spent the majority of 1981 playing.Send me your mall appearance photos!
Captain or is that Commander America?
This ad for licensing Captain America products from 1981 is interesting not only to comic fans but also trek people ( can’t remember if “trekkie” or “trekker” is offensive so I’ll steer away from that controversy, thank you) as I’m 90% certain that’s none other than Commander William Riker actor Jonathan Frakes under that ill […]
