Kenner Star Wars!!

The Imperial Cruiser, more commonly known as the Star Destroyer, from Kenner's Die Cast line.  It still has the Rebel Blockade Runner tucked tightly in it's landing bay!

Aparo Batman!

One of my favorite Batman comics by probably my favorite Batman artist Jim Aparo!  Detective #444, Jan '75, with a story by Len Wein that would span several issues; reaching a soul-searing (and highly convoluted- and quite far fetched) conclusion!

Flash!!

I've been enjouing the Flash Gordon serial these past couple of weeks!  I love the production design and the effects, and-especially-Charles Middleton's Ming the Merciless!  One more chapter-"Rocketing to Earth"- to go!

Batman View-master!

21 "Stereo Pictures" from the episodes "The Purr-fect Crime" and "Better Luck Next Time"! This was great for kid viewing during the times when you couldnt get "Batman" on the local station!
