GreatCaesarsGhost Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 (edited) And now for something completely different. has anyone ever actually laid eyes on “this beautiful desk”? It’s “a neutral blue-green - trimmed in black and silver - made of sturdy fibre board”. I know what you’re thinking. You’re thinking a desk this beautiful and durable should cost $100! but no, you fool! Only a dollar! seriously, anybody ever seen this out in the world? hey @Robot Man Edited May 10, 2020 by GreatCaesarsGhost Chicago Boy, Primetime, woowoo and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The dept codes on the coupon are always different (unless it's from a Cap1 or Mystic 5 which match). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Knight Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 @GreatCaesarsGhost You hit a light bulb in my head when you mentioned about the ad for the desk. Maybe someone on here who still owns or at least taken a picture of any of the comic book ad items that were up for sale can create a thread solely on that. Would love to see the foot fungus one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would love to see the foot fungus one Guys, there's a great book about these ads, and there is a thread about it. The author is a childhood friend of @kav. He can explain it better than I can, but I did buy the book and its a lot of fun. I can shoot a pic and post it later if you like, but I don't want to derail the thread too much either. The desk, however, was not in there. Chicago Boy, Dark Knight, kav and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's lots of pictures and blurbs, not text-heavy, but it's an excellent walk down memory lane, with a tour guide giving the backstory the whole way.
