Big Little Book -1968

sgI got this at a present from my friends Chris and Carry Wichtendahl, early enough in my collecting days that someone else could actually get me an Aquaman piece that I probably didn't have (those days are long gone).

This is a Big Little Book--a combo text/comic book that measures about 5x4" big and runs a few hundred pages. They've pretty much faded from existence now but command high prices among collectors (collecting BLB books? how silly).

The plot concerns a bunch of aliens that try and take over the oceans (as they are wont to do). I don't remember much else from it, except for the panel at left--one of my most favorite, most goofy Aquaman moments ever.

"Deep in Thought"--I want to make that into a t-shirt one day.

I'm impressed! Every piece of really obscure Aquaman memorabilia I dig up, you've already posted. You are the man!
