Ho, ho, ho-wzit goin, Groove-ophiles! Ol' Groove spends a lot of time yakkin' about the covers, and splashes, and stories, and art in our beloved Groovy Age comics, but I don't seem to spend enough time on the ads. The ads were as much a part of the fun (sometimes more) of the comix experience as any of the rest of the aforementioned items. Heck, I remember buying a few comics just for certain ads! Crazy, huh? Crazy like a fox, baby, 'cause when you handled those ads the right way, you could lay some heavy hints on your parents for Christmas goodies! For example...









How 'bout you, Groove-ophile? Did you find any of these awesome items under your tree?

(Oh, and since we're in the giving-mood, consider this blast from the past a stocking stuffer! Your regularly scheduled "Swash" Buckler Saturday installment will arrive in 12 short hours!)
