Book Description
Trading cards based on popular television series and comic book characters were incredibly prolific and popular during the 1960s, '70s, and '80s. This pictorial study includes such comics and TV shows as Stingray, Supercar, Thunderbirds, Doctor Who and the Daleks, The Man from UNCLE, Superman, Tarzan, The Incredible Hulk, Robin Hood, Sea Hunt, and Amos Burke-Secret Agent, as well as toddler favorites Andy Pandy, Lenny the Lion, Noddy, Pinky and Perky, and Sooty and Sweep, and cartoon classics Bugs Bunny, The Flintstones, Huckleberry Hound, Popeye, Quick Draw McGraw, and Yogi Bear. In some cases, enlarging the artwork has not done the finished product any favours; in other cases, we can finally see what the artist achieved and do him justice.This is not a defining history or a definitive collection, but a small contribution to the study of a mostly forgotten and ignored area of popular culture. If it turns out to be nothing else, it will be a warm buzz of nostalgia.Also included is a short section on jigsaw puzzles from the same era, featuring Gerry Anderson and Hanna-Barbera creations.This is part of the fun 4 fans series of pictorial 20th century histories that also includes Spirit of the '60s and Visions of the Future From the Past.

Book Description
Originally broadcast on American television between 1952 and 1969, the 30 situation comedies in this work are seldom seen today and receive only brief and often incomplete and inaccurate mentions in most reference sources. Yet these sitcoms (including Angel, The Governor and J.J., It's a Great Life, I'm Dickens ... He's Fenster and Wendy and Me), and the stories of the talented people who made them, are an integral part of television history. With a complete list of production credits and rare publicity stills, this volume, based on multiple screenings of episodes, corrects other sources and expand our knowledge of television history.

Book Description
Take a fun look back at Quacker Oats, Blisterine, and more classic packaging parodies—plus an interview with creator Art Spiegelman! Known affectionately among collectors as “Wacky Packs,” the Topps stickers that parodied well-known consumer brands were a phenomenon in the 1970s—even outselling the Topps Company’s baseball cards for a while. But few know that the genius behind it all was none other than Art Spiegelman—the Pulitzer Prize–winning graphic novelist who created Maus. This treasury includes an interview with Spiegelman about his early career and his decades-long relationship with the memorabilia company—as well as a colorful compendium that will bring back memories of such products as Plastered Peanuts, Jail-O, Weakies cereal, and many more. Illustrated by notable comics artists Kim Deitch, Bill Griffith, Jay Lynch, Norm Saunders, and more, this collection is a visual treat, a load of laughs, and a tribute to a beloved product that’s been delighting kids (and adults) for decades.
