Kenner SSP Drag King Creature from the Black Lagoon (sponsored eBay link) —

My pal Matt sent this to me, and honestly, I had forgotten it was real. It’s not an official CFTBL item but it was made in the age where toy companies could get away with getting this close.

Kamen Rider Hot Wheels (sponsored link)–

I’m not a Hot Wheels guy, unless it’s a fantasy vehicle and I snoozed on these in 2003 (My kid had colic and I don’t remember much of it) and now regret it. These are essential for my work space.

Jack Davis Sesame Street Puzzles (sponsored eBay link)

My friend Courtney sent me this, and I can’t get over how awesome these would look framed. I love the mixing of Jack Davis and the muppets, I love his take on the characters. Also, Roosevelt Franklin was awesome!

80s Soap Opera inspired soap set (sponsored eBay link)—

The gift you give someone who loves Soap Operas, and, well, that’s the only thing you know about the person. The concept of getting gifts for people you don’t know goes back to the Egyptians…

Lynda Carter Iron-On T-Shirt (Sponsored eBay link)–

I don’t really know anyone that doesn’t like Lynda Carter and I hope I never run into one.

The post T-Shirts: 1975 appeared first on PS.

The post Iron On Monday appeared first on PS.

Looking at this selection of adult t-shirts,  I’m amazed by a few things 1) How much merchandise based on “The Shadow” was made in the mid 1970s 2) The whole CB thing and 3) Sears clearly owes Robert Crumb some money.

The post T Shirts: 1977 appeared first on PS.

OK, even though this is 1977 there are a few of these I would wear now especially Frankenstein and that weirdly smug Captain America.

The post Super Shirts! appeared first on PS.

From that time when Superhero T Shirts were hard to get…..

The post Komic Korner appeared first on PS.

The post Star Wars Full Color T-Shirts appeared first on PS.

Finally! My love of crafts and Gabe Kaplan have been fused together for a magical Sunday Afternoon’s worth of delight!

The post Welcome Back Kotter T-Shirt Painting Kits appeared first on PS.

I’ve posted bits of this before in the dial up days but I don’t think I’ve shown the whole ad.


I’m just in awe, I’d wear the majority of these right now especially the Famous Monsters and Tarzan.

Also, it’s weird to see Shazam! designs yet only one Batman.

The post Mighty Men of Action and Adventure appeared first on PS.

As a kid, I really wanted a Donmoor Star Trek uniform shirt but never got one (probably for the best), so collecting these is likely cathartic. I should point out that as an adult, I still don’t wear Star Trek shirts.

A sample from my growing wardrobe that I can’t possibly fit into.
