stippy52 Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 I'm trying to recreate a spinner rack from my youth and this is the time period from some of my earliest books. I don't know if these (and their 35 cent brethren) are designated with a name. Also, what is the best site to search for publication dates?

Marvel Value Stamps were from 1974 to 1975, and I have 2 spinners full of 307 books from this time period.

Not only is that too cool, it just brought back certain memories of racks/shelves being too high for me to reach in the grocery stores. My parents would trust me to sit there for hours, mesmerized, while they shopped. Those days are long gone. Artboy99 and marvelmaniac 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just got a Suscha news copy and am sending it for a reholder with the new ped label. I think those price logos were essentially a warning before a price increase if I'm not mistaken.

This was the first Marvel book I bought-at age 18. Didnt pay any attention to Marvels as a kid even when I had plenty of money to buy all the DCs I needed for the month-sad to say. Missed out on many keys with that attitude. ADAMANTIUM, PopKulture and bentbryan 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boy Kav, do I ever feel sorry for you that that was the 1st Spider-Man you bought. That Issue (and the whole ridiculous clone story line) ended my run on Spider-Man that I had been actively collecting since issue #63 in 1968.

I have a little more appreciation for what they were trying to pull off now (although the whole clone thing seemed forced, especially using Gwen) but it just missed the mark somehow and the Jackal himself is what ruined it. Maybe if they had used an existing villain or come up with something else. I dont know, but after that, I just couldn’t take it anymore and dropped out.

Leaving your child unattended at a comic rack is the one that stands out the most to me.
