This man is what they would describe as cruelly handsome in the pulps. He has a sinister look about his eyes. He’s an irresistible slab of steel-muscled manliness.

Let the suckers pay $50 for a hairpiece that looks like a drowned cat. $8.00 is all this man’s man needs and he’ll have plenty of dough left over to wine and dine the dames.
This ad appeared in Captain America No. 164 published by Marvel Comics in 1973. It featured the Captain’s trusty second banana The Falcon who will figure in the future Captain America movies.
