Posted on 03:51 by john cena

Spotted at Atomic Flashback.com, I had several of these over the years, sometimes awith and sometimes without a STAR TREK tie-in. I still have  ablue one but none of the tracers. That was the problem. You could shoot 'em well but you could rarely find them all!

Miss America

Posted on 06:00 by john cena
Beauty pageants were all the rage in the sixties. My mother never missed one and thus I ended up catching quite a few myself. The biggest was the Miss America contest. '66 saw the very first time that pageant was aired in color--except for those of us who still had black and white TV's. The 1966 Miss America was one Deborah Bryant--ironically the same name as my childhood "girlfriend" whom I would meet the following year.

Monkees and DC

Posted on 08:59 by john cena


The Monkees were all the rage in '66. Their own comic book was published by Dell but her ein this shot we see Davy and Mike reading a handful of DC's on a plane. I remember buying the WORLD'S FINEST issue at Lampke's Drugstore and the GREEN LANTERN at a Greyhound station somewhere down south while we were on vacation. This issue of GL was the first comic I ever wrote a letter to--it was not published.
