1965

I don't think I've ever seen an ad just for Sugar and Spike and Fox and Crow...where are the Absolute Editions of those books?

1967

1964

I love that G.I. Joe ad...

Batman/Detective Comics - 1965

Showcase: I Spy!/Sgt. Rock - 1964

I love that I Spy ad--I've always wanted to pick up that particular book, just based on the ad and the cover.

Sgt. Rock - 1967

That's a lot of text in a small space, yet still a perfectly balanced ad.

Superboy - 1967

What a fun ad! 25 cents well spent.

16 Days of The Batman, Part 11

Day 11 of our team-up with Dial B For Blog--two ads this time.

Ira Schnapp used negative space so darn well...

16 Days of The Batman, Part 10

Day 10 of our team-up with Dial B For Blog!

Another superb ad...I love the little toy (Corgi?) replicas of the Bat-Copter, Batmobile, and Bat-Jet that Batman had made up, presumably to help as visual aids for Robin.

16 Days of The Batman, Part 8

Day 8 of our team-up with Dial B For Blog--not one, not two, but three ads!

All three ads brilliantly composed by master designer Ira Schnapp.

Superman - 1968

Sgt.Rock - 1969

80 Page Giants - 1964

Action Comics - 1965
