1972 Keds Batman and Superman TV Ad! SuperSneaks!
How many of you remember this ad? It aired around 1972 on kid's TV, and featured Superman and Batman cajoling some poor lone kid on a playground, sweet-talkin' him about his sneakers! Where's mom when ya need her?
From a 70s issue of MONSTER TIMES, this is the "storyboard" of the ad, which is nowhere to be found on YouTube or anywhere else!

Albert Bigley vs Sons of the Tiger! 70s Kung-Fu Craze Marvel Madness!
Here is my one attempt to cash in on the mid-70s Kung Fu craze. I lifted this image from the Sal Buscema-drawn cover of MARVEL TEAM-UP 40, spotlighting the tepid Sons of the Tiger in blazing battle action.
I recall taking this to school in Jersey, in the 5th grade, and trying to get 25 cents for it!
No takers. Can you imagine?

1973 Albert Bigley AMAZING SPIDER-MAN Cover Artwork! Intense!
Here is my 4th grade attempt to depict a cover of a SPIDER-MAN comic book from the day. Seemed like Spidey was always spouting off about his current situation, as a way of filling in readers and bringing them up to date.
Boy, I really thought I could handle foreshortening on figures, huh? The "Marvel way," indeed!
I love how I only give the barest amount of background info here, to let ya know Spidey is freeing himself from a sawmill trap.

John Romita Sr.! MY LOVE Cover Rough! Marvel Comics!
Here is another staggeringly gorgeous cover pencil rough by one of the early SPIDER-MAN artists, John Romita, Sr.! This was done for one of Marvel's early 70s romance titles, before superheroes came to dominate all. JRSR is also seen here in a recent convention pic at the right.
