A couple of years ago, I bought a batch of Crazy magazines really cheap on eBay. I wanted to see if I would find them as funny as I did when I first read them in the 70’s (I didn’t). They ended up sitting in a box for some time before I got around to going through all of them.
I found this KISS poster that had fallen out of one of the issues (I looked, but didn’t see which issue it was. None of them indicated that a poster was included).
The artist’s name is “Bush”.
Interestingly, a couple of the issues have bits drawn by Will Eisner.
You might try www.kiss4sale.com to see if they’re familiar with it, Mr. Blue Sky. I took a quick look around to see if I spotted your poster, but I didn’t see it. However, you can contact them if you have a question. I haven’t done business with them, so I don’t know how ethical or polite they are with people who have merchandise questions.
IIRC, www.kissonline.com used to have a section that showcased vintage merchandise, but they’re under construction right now. So that part may be offline at the moment.
I wish you the best of luck. I know KISS has been so heavily merchandised that finding a specific on anything is probably challenging because there is so much stuff out there. Hopefully you will find out something soon.
You’re welcome for the info, Mr. Blue Sky. And let us know how it turns out – even if it doesn’t turn out to be super-valuable, I’d love to find out if it’s an unusual piece, when it dates from, etc.
I got a response from that website. According to them, it’s from the second KISS Marvel comic in 1976. They offer a mint condition copy w/poster for $100!
