20 Bonkers Classic Comics Adverts You Won't Believe
6. Build Your Own Apollo Lunar Module
The conspiracy theorists will no doubt be smug about the fact that you could apparently buy the component parts to build an Apollo Lunar Module for 10 cents from an advert in a comic book. You know why you can do that? Because the Moon landings were faked! Filmed on a back lot! Well, no, they weren't faked, but this advert was a total hoax. You get all this for one dime! they say as if it's a good deal, considering it's the materials to make a miniature scale model of a Lunar Module, rather than one you can actually step inside.
