I recently found this wonderful relic of early fandom from 1974. It mainly features Star Trek and Planet of the Apes items for mail orders.

Remco Wonder Woman Utility Belt (eBay Link) – I’m an ardent fan of the Remco Utility belt and breaker of at least two. While the quality varied from character to character, this Wonder Woman set was particularly great; every girl on my street had one. Remco Star Trek Astro-Train (eBay Link) — Speaking of Remco, […]
