Merry Marvel Marching Society QUESTION 0

[Ameri]

Calling all Marvelites out there. Was there any publication that compiled all the names of MMMS club members that originally appeared in issues that ran from June 1965 through April 1968? When the new club was advertised in May 1968 issues, club member names were no longer published so April 1968 titles appear to be the last issues that carried names. Thanks!

This would be a nice set of names if they are compiled in one publication or website. Otherwise, checking approximately 400 issues in that time frame would be a fun project.

Searching for old collections?

[Ameri]

I think it it would be fun to see how many famous movie directors and artists joined the club when they were kids. Quite a few future comic book dealers were members of the club as well.

Searching for old collections?

 

There are a lot of opportunists trolling for old MMMS members. Once guy called Dr. Landman, the owner of the Dr. Fate collection, asking if he still had his comics.

 

"I just want to fly in to see your comics...I love old comics...maybe you can sell me some while I'm there..."

 

Creepy stuff.

I know a few that have said those exact few words.

Robot Man...

I am LOVIN ALL of that, makes me feel all Warm and Fuzzy inside.

Wanna be a kid again and go back to the 60's.

[KirbyJack]

So cool! I'd never seen those figures before.

[Robot Man]

They are all wind-ups. There was a Spiderman of each but I have never owned either of them.

GORGEOUS !!!

[Ameri]

Excellent rare toys, Robot Man, and love the box art. Here's some items

 

Tee shirt available through mail order from 1965 to some time in 1968

 

1966 Marvel cards (66 cards to complete the set)

 

Completed puzzle if you had all the 1966 cards (when I was a kid, the toughest card to find in the gumpacks was Thor's yellow shoe/Dardevil leg card). Anybody remember a different tough card?

 

1967 Stickers (55 in the set)

 

1967 Marx figures which came in a variety of colors

Great stuff! I forgot but I think I have that set of Marx figures put away some where. But the T-Shirt! Now that is a real rare piece. They were worn and torn up and tossed. So very hard to find stuff like that anymore. I have a 1958 Alfred E. Neuman T-Shirt and know of only just a couple out there. I used to have a photo of me, my brother and two sisters as kids wearing Big Daddy Roth Rat Fink shirts but it's lost to the ages now.

[Ameri]

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

From 1965. Fortunately, I outgrew it quickly.
