Teasing the Korean Posted June 19, 2007 Report Posted June 19, 2007 I'm curious if any of you boomers or early gen-xers ever ordered the 7 foot tall monster advertised in comic books, Mad Magazine, etc. He had glow in the dark eyes, and he was only a dollar. I'm just curious as to how much monster you really got for only a buck. Quote

Man with the Golden Arm Posted June 19, 2007 Report Posted June 19, 2007 (edited) i think i remember that as a Jack Davis "door poster" thing. i was forbade Mad as a kid but used to go into the back of IGA where the magazines were and rip out and shirt stuff any of his art. HE IS A GOD! edit: sorry for any of you that just got Mort Drucker, Sergio Aragones, Spy vs Spy and Don Martin issues. Edited June 19, 2007 by Man with the Golden Arm Quote
RDK Posted June 19, 2007 Report Posted June 19, 2007 Some fun stuff here... http://www.secretfunspot.com/ You can find the mail order monster in the Mail Order section. Quote
Teasing the Korean Posted June 20, 2007 Author Report Posted June 20, 2007 Thanks. Seeing those ads also reminded me of the comic-style ad where the guy punches in late and gets chewed out by Mr. Bemis. The kid then tells Mr. Bemis he's enrolled in votech classes and has a promising career ahead of him. The guy leaves and Mr. Bemis is shaking his fist. Those were the days... Quote
