You know the ones I'm talking about... You would stare at them long after you finished reading the stories and think to yourself "wow that is SO cool, I really want one!" These ads were not only aimed at little boys with their offers of "Build your own APOLLO Lunar Module for only 10 cents". They also went after the little girls with "Miniature dog at NO COST!" Rediscovering these ads is like stepping back in time. Enjoy!
Over at The Classics of Comic Book Advertising By Steve Conley Steve has added a new section called "Testimonials: Your stories!". This is a fantastic addition! Here you can read testimonials from people who actually purchased some of these items and stories from those who never went beyond coveting, what seemed just out of reach as a child..
