One of the highlights of a recent trip to Chicago was being able to rummage through my friend Charlie's basement and look at his collection. It was almost a museum to growing up in the 70's, I thought I'd share random images of some of my favourite items. Expect a part two to this some time in the future.
I don't even collect Star Wars but I couldn't take my eyes off this vintage store display.
Loaded with Bronze age Marvels, not to mention multi packs.
Sigh, the one thing I could never seem to own, Stretch Monster.
Mattel Krusher MIB, I've never really looked at one before, just love it!
Finally something for my mantle....
That Man Thing comic in the rack was one of my first comics, I still have it (not in that shape) and the Star Wars display is great, I loved that time period the packaging artwork was just awesome.
