1970 Ben Cooper Playsuit!

spidey_70bencoopercostume.JPG

Sans mask, but you get the idea... seems to me this should've been easy for Ben Cooper to create, but they went a bit off-model, didn't they?

No wonder Peter Parker's always broke... look at the kind of vehicles he's purchased and paying for storage on!

Spider-Man Plastic Glove!

Why would this product have been made? What for? Was it part of some kind of Spidey Experimenting With Chemicals Kit, and you needed the glove to protect your hands? Inquiring minds want to know!

Spider-Man Cartoonarama Sheets!

As near as I can tell, the Cartoonarama toy was something that would help you trace pictures... I forget if it was mechanically or if it used a light table or what!

Well, this was a bit premature on Cannon's part back in 1985, wasn't it?

8mm Spider-Man Cartoon!

Yes, in those days before VCRs, DVDs, etc., if you wanted to watch something when you wanted to watch it, you needed to buy it in 8mm or Super 8mm, and show it with a projector! Here's one of them, adapted from an episode of the 1960s Spidey cartoon!

Slurpee Cups!

OK, I'm going to see how many of these photos I've got, and then decide if it'll run for more than one day! Back in the 1970s, to promote the sale of Slurpees, 7-Eleven licensed first the DC, and then the Marvel characters to be used on plastic cups you'd get free with your Slurpees! I remember many a summer buying Slurpees just to get the cups! Spidey, naturally, appeared on a lot of them!

The first Marvel series came out in 1975, and these were followed up in the summer of 77 with wrap-around cups!
