JD sent in this great vintage shot of a Spider-Man appearance in Cleveland 1978 although he can’t quite remember the store it looks like Spider-Man is in the Office Supplies section. If that didn’t rock enough, JD also submitted this uber cool shot of what the “Free Spider-Man Button” looked like from last week’s ad. […]
You don’t see a great deal of AHI stuff in department store catalogs but the Zoom cycles were a little higher price point and combined superheroes with Evel Knievel, so it’s a no brainer.
