So I found this old box at work that was used to transport some poster boards or some such a few years back. I quickly assessed that my son (a print maker & visual arts major in his senior year of college) could use it as a portfolio for transporting his larger pieces. Naturally we decided it needed to be decoupaged. I went with some old beat up Marvel books, some of which did not even have covers.
A Thor, What If?, 2 Captain America & Falcon, a Peter Parker the Spectacular Spider-Man, a Man-Thing, a Howard The Duck, a Power Man & Iron fist, a Luke Cage Hero for Hire and a Conan provided the fodder. I also added some embellishments to the front featuring other classic Marvel characters and teams. Everything was from the 1970's to early 1980's era (with one small exception).
