Item Description
Set of 16 miniature 8-page comic books, each is 2.5x3.5". Issued in 1967 as a test set only and never saw full distribution. Topps spoofed some of the biggest names in comic books and pop culture in these comics as well as having parody ads on the back covers. Titles such as "The Amusing Spider-Guy" and "Badman With Ribbon The Boy Blunder" should give you an idea of the nature of this issue. The other spoofed characters are: Marvel Comics- Thor, Hulk, Capt. America, Fantastic Four, Sub-Mariner; DC Comics- Superman, Wonder Woman, JLA, Flash; as well as: Tarzan, Prince Valiant, Mandrake, Lone Ranger, Phantom. SGC grades and number per grads are: 88 NM/MT 8 (2), 86 NM+ 7.5 (1), 84 NM 7 (4), 82 EX/NM+ 6.5 (1), 80 EX/NM 6 (4), 70 EX+ 5.5 (3), 60 EX 5 (1). An overall high grade set for this thin, fragile paper stock issue. As "slabbed", a great cross-over item for both collectors of graded cards and comic books.
