Merry Marvel Marching Society QUESTION 0

[Ameri]

From 1965. Fortunately, I outgrew it quickly.

 

 

I love that photo

You guys will love this one.

 

 

At 6:28 he sings the whole MMMS song.

[Ameri]

wow, that's really cool. I can't believe they were all written by one guy. Thanks for sharing!

[Robot Man]

I'd love to see the Alfred T shirt. Here's my other shirt, chocolate milk stains still intact

 

 

Here's my Alfred E Neuman shirt (with a lot of other stuff) and my set of Marx Marvel Characters.

Man this stuff takes me back.

[Ameri]

That's an amazing collection Robot Man! I can't believe that shirt is 57 years old. There was also the Aurora Alfred Neumann model back in the 70's. I built it but it's long gone now. If you had that creative bent, one could do a fine job painting those Marvel figures

Nothing like resurrecting a 3 ½ year old thread!

So I’m that obsessive-compulsive Marvel fan who has indeed compiled a list of all the published MMMS members – 11,060 names in 430 comics!  It wasn’t feasible until the issues I lack, mostly western and war titles, have recently been scanned and are available online – Bullpen Bulletin page and all.

I do realize any owners of those names are now more than 60 years old -- if they’re still around, God bless ‘em  --  and a vast majority of them couldn’t care less about which comic may have featured their name in tiny, tiny type.  The scope of the task is dwarfed by the apathy.  Whatever.  It’s done.

Caveat:  many members’ names didn’t get published when Marvel stopped listing them in 1968. Getting your $1.00 refunded at this point is unlikely.

If you’re interested in finding your or a friend’s name, shoot me a PM.  I don’t expect a deluge.

Nice!

That’s just exactly the kind of windmill I would tilt at if time or wife allowed. 

I joined 1990’s Wild Agents of Marvel. I don’t think I got an equivalent experience.

I was a member of F.O.O.M U.K and still have my card, envelope and stickers. I was very proud to be a member and was thrilled at the envelope arriving and seeing the Hulk face as large as life.

The original issue 1967 Marx Marvel heroes set was silver/grey in colour.  I know because I had them in 1967.  The coloured ones are likely 1970s re issues or bootlegs...

I had the original set, too. Wish I still did.

Are these hard to find and roughly how much do they go for even in rusty condition, thanks?
