1973 G.I. Joe Book & Record Sets

After the action figure carrying cases project I may spend a little time exploring a book all about the old children’s books of the seventies and eighties. You know, stuff like Golden Books and Choose Your Own Adventure-style books, but with an emphasis on books designed to promote toylines. An expansion of ideas I touched on in Each Sold Separately* and Action Figures Not Included*.

Such a book would have to include the 1973 Peter Pan G.I. Joe Adventure Team book and record sets, right? Those are a fun blend of comic book and record, and as the back cover (shown below) tells us, they are also educational!
