BRITISH ADS FOR MAJOR MATT MASON...

Characters copyright MATTEL Inc.

Those of a certain age will recall MAJOR MATT MASON,

MATTEL'S MAN IN SPACE, and the ads that appeared in

U.S. comics at the time.  However, it appears that the U.K. had

their own series of ads, which I've never seen reproduced any-

where else before.  Which doesn't necessarily mean they haven't

been, just that I haven't seen them.  So, without claiming that the

following ads are comprehensive (there may have been more),

here are the ones which appeared in SMASH! in 1969.  No

doubt they appeared in other U.K. comics as well.

Did you have any Major Matt Mason toys, readers?

Why not reminisce about them to your heart's content in

our scintillating comments section?  And if you want to see

just a few Matt Mason items from my own collection,

And below are two ads which appeared in U.S. comics...
