1977 Ad for Comic Book and Record Sets (Batman, Six Million Dollar Man, Spider-Man, and more!)
The comic book and record sets of the seventies and eighties get some coverage in my two books about comic book marketing (Each Sold Separately*, Action Figures Not Included*), but a mere mention and discussion in a book cannot compete with this fabulous full-page ad from 1977. The May 1977 Starlog issue is the source, and looking through the offered titles I cannot help but think how fun it would be if a publisher scored the rights to produce apps that bring these old book and record sets back to life.
