Some neato EC related items that I saw a while back at an antique mall: a very cool 80's re-issue counter display box filled with EC comic reprints! Next, all three, original, 1950's signed EC horror host fan club mail order photos (aka "The Ghoulunatics") of The Vault Keeper, The OG Crypt Keeper, and The Old Witch. (For those of you unaware, each image is a doctored photograph of artist Johnny Craig, with make-up apparently applied by Al Feinstein himself-- *CHOKE GAG!! And finally, a couple of small, but very cute Alfred E. Neuman MAD mag mascot busts, both of which were still available the last time I visited this antique mall, the other items have sold.

Neat! I really liked the gladstone EC reprints, that's kind of where I started my EC collection and after the big giant sized ones, I subscribed and got a complete EC reprint from them (even the post-code stuff which, outside of impact, wasn't that great.) Eventually I got the big bound editions, too.
I love the Creatures on the Loose peeking out!
I think the Craig/Feldstein photos put an office boy through college? They probably sold quite a lot of those! Cool to see them out in the wild.
