This blog certified 100% irrelevant. WARNING: Irreverence and vulgar colloquialisms within. DISCLAIMER: If you read something I wrote here and find it offensive, I am mildly sorry. Just don't do it again. I don’t typically aim to provoke, but in any case yer problems ain’t my problem. I grew up on Long Island in the 70’s and 80’s. This blog is a fond (well, mostly) reminiscence of that place and era, using ephemera evocative of them.

Dynamite! Loved that magazine. I was just telling someone about that. I forget who.
My favorite Dynamite thingamajob: 3D posters. I remember one of King Kong and maybe another of Jaws, but I might have just dreamt about that one.
Question: Do you remember a 70s magazine for even younger kids called "WOW"?
I had the 3D King Kong poster. (Even better, I had a huge floor-to-ceiling poster of Kong standing behind huts with villagers fleeing... my god, I may still have that at my mom's house.)
I don't remember Wow. I tried searching, but only came up with a wrestling magazine. I do sorta remember one called Bananas which may have also been one of those Scholastic magazines.
One of the Dynamites I have has official Dynamite stationery in it. I should post a full size pic so my loyal readers can use it for... um, do people still write letters?
Let's not forget Pizzazz, Marvel's rip-off of Dynamite. I re-purchased a copy off of eBay a few years ago. I think it was boring. In fact it was this issue.
A can opener!
