    Coincidentally, I ordered a submarine from Bazooka for ten comics and a buck, or something like that.

    It was a spring loaded submarine that fired a torpedo an inch or so when I pushed a trigger. I remember being pleased. I sank many a Nazi battleship with it.

    My friend and I ordered the x-ray glasses.

    The ad depicted a drawing of a smiling kid wearing the glasses and looking at his hand and seeing bones. We hoped to see people’s skeletons.

    When we got the glasses the first thing we noticed was that you couldn’t see skeletons with them (unless, of course, you were looking at a picture of a skeleton). When you wore them you just saw what you would normally see except out of focus.
