Vintage Books


Today brings the end of Vintage Thingies Thursday for 2011. It has been a pleasure being with Coloradolady and her friends each week on vintage day. Join me at http://coloradolady.blogspot for out last gathering for the year.

These are paperback sized comic books from the 80s.




I do not have these little vintage editions. I spotted them in an antique mall.

While I was never a big comic fan the last two books are more my style. The illustrations look so comforting.

Yay I love comics! ^_^ Reminds me of my childhood. ^_^

I remember the little thick comics! And I remember the big thick ones and the big thin ones. I wonder how much a comic costs nowadays? They used to be ten or fifteen cents. The thick ones were twenty five cents.

These illustrations are handsome.

Fantastic vintage books, and I remember seeing them.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

I still love comics and anything that's animated on the tv. I used to have a Rupert Bear album. It was a favourite book and I suspect it fell to pieces from overuse long ago.
Happy new year.

Hi LV. I love all these vintage books and comics. Frightening to think that I remember quite a lot of them!! Just wanted to pop across to wish you a happy, healthy and peaceful new year.

Hi LV!
Thanks so much for sharing those! Oh my gosh, you would not believe the boxes (and boxes) of comics books I found at my parents house. So much fun to look at. And I adore those wonderful vintage covers, so very sweet.

Happy happy New Year to you and yours!
