Captain America Mad Libs

Los Angeles: Price/Stern/Sloan Publishers, 1981. Book. Very Good. Stiff Card Wraps. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. One of a series of 1980s party game booklets for kids and comics fans, in which one player would select one of 12 stories (with a number of blank spaces in the sentences) from the booklet, and then request nouns, adjectives, verbs, and so on from the other players. The first player would then read out the story, with the suggested words in the appropriate spaces, and in the process hope to form an amusing (or, as the directions would have it, a "fantastic, screamingly funny, shocking, silly, crazy or just plain dumb") story. Story titles include "The Red Skull," "Captain America Protects a Movie Star," "Captain America Rebuilds His Car," "Captain America at the Singles Party," "The Avengers Find Captain America," and so on. Unpaginated, illustrated w/black & white drawings of Cap and other Marvel creations. Only light general wear, sticker pull to top right corner of back cover, original price sticker to back cover. None of the blanks have been filled in and there are no previous owner's marks of any kind. A scarce item, and especially difficult to find in unused condition..
