I’m back with some G.I. Joe paraphernalia you don’t see every day. These notebooks came into my collection via a fellow collector.
Printed in 1988 in Italy, these notebooks recycle G.I. Joe art, but adds a bit of cloud cover to it. That and the addition of some of the European flags, make for an interesting look. By the way, the Belgian flag is missing! The cover is actually somewhat of a wraparound image. Not quite sure about the connection between the Crimson Twins and the SkyStriker, but hey, it looks cool! The flags are continuing here, but more flags from around the world this time.
The second one shows the SkyStriker again, but this time from another angle.
Can you guess what is shown on the back cover?
This notebook has the epic Rattler versus SkyStriker battle.
The last notebook I got my hands on, shows the A.W.E. Striker.
Maybe another strange combo, but here we get Spirit on the back of the notebook.
In case you’re wondering what the inside looks like. No more suspension, the pages are all little squares. Cobra Trooper for scale 🙂
I’ll leave you with a closeup of the manufacturer’s logo and the print date with the Hasbro patent lettering. If you’d happen to come across other of these notebooks, let me know!
Happy Collecting and YoJoe!
