Buddy's buddy?  That sounds like Canadianese.

I used to have these as a kid, and wish I knew where they went.

Hepcat-- I love the Foldees! I only have a few of them.

John Pertwee--- I have those Little Superman figures. I think I posted one still in it's packaging earlier in this thread. I also have the Batman and Robin figures, too, but not on their cards. P.S. - I liked your work on Dr. Who!

Here's one of my Superman Kenner Give-A-Show projector slides. I have a second one, too. That's Space Ghost below, too ( spanking a naughty alien)

Here's my wrapper from the 1966 Topps Superman cards that were based on the TV show of the fifties:

Wow. I had theses Batman figurines when I was a kid. I have never seen them in that packaging before. The ones I had were from Woolworth's and they were in a box loose. Very cool.

Therin....were you at a comic convention when you had your picture taken with the other Superman? I really dig the metal S on the back of that jacket.  You should tell us about super-hero events (or comic conventions) in Australia.      Buddy

I don't have a large Supes collection but a couple neat things. This one is one of my favorite collector stories. First house purchased around 1987 from an elderly couple. In the attic found a bunch of old stuff including a couple cigar boxes full of smally type things. Being naive I didn't inspect the boxes very carefully, but since there were some penknives and watches decided to set it out at a garage sale we were having. All day people came and picked through the boxes and bought a few items. It wasn't until years later I was reexamining them and saw a ring, looked closely at it, and WOW how lucky that no one had spied this little beauty! I did some research and IDd it as a Crusader ring cereal premium from the 30s or 40s. I call it "Able to wear steel on his bare hands"
