1983 G.I. Joe Action Figures on Sale
I haven’t made any significant progress on my next book this week, but I do continue to search the Google newspaper archives as I get time here and there, and every now and then I’m rewarded with a new G.I. Joe advertisement. Take for example this 1983 ad for King Norman’s, a toy store in Eugene, Oregon where we find G.I. Joe action figures on sale for $2.44/each. This isn’t the lowest price we’ve seen for the toys at the time, but $2.44 is still a damned good price and one any of us would happily pay today.
