From award-winning Marvel Comics writer, editor, and historian Roy Thomas comes the story of Marvel’s most-inspired comic book promotional campaign, collected in a single volume for the first time.

Cover by Alex Ross

In 1974 Marvel Comics publisher Stan Lee devised an ingenious promotional campaign—Marvel Value Stamps, which appeared on the letters pages of their monthly comics. Readers could cut out all 100 of these super hero and super villain stamps and place them in a special mail-order booklet. Once complete, these stamp books could then be redeemed for special discounts and exclusive merchandise. The program was so successful, a second set was released in 1975.

Now in Marvel Value Stamps: A Visual History, full-color reproductions of these long unavailable, out-of-print original stamp books, stamps, and all of the surrounding ephemera and source material are compiled into one must-have volume for collectors and fans.

Reprinted for the first time, the world’s smallest comic books—superhero adventures originally printed by Marvel in 1966 and now enlarged to a more readable size—in a seven-book collectible boxed set

In 1966, Marvel printed what the Guinness Book of World Records certified as the world’s smallest comic books. Smaller than a postage stamp, and sold in gumball machines across the country, these six books told the quirky origin stories of Marvel’s most beloved characters at that time: the Amazing Spider-Man, the Incredible Hulk, the Mighty Thor, Captain America, Sergeant Nick Fury, and Millie the Model.

Marvel Comics Mini-Books reproduces facsimile editions of all six books in one affordable box set—along with a seventh book written by Mark Evanier that details the history and creation of these rare, vintage collectibles.
