Final Project - Harrison's Comics and Collectibles in Pictures: A Follow-Up


Back in March, I posted a photo essay detailing some of the highlights of Harrison's Comics and Collectibles in downtown Salem, MA. For my final project, I'm going to revisit Harrison's and share a few more interesting photos were originally taken on February 28, 2012.
This sculpted Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man bank would be a welcome addition to any Ghostbusters or '80s pop culture fanatic's collection.  
Harrison's can be a place to revisit one's childhood, as seen by the Yosemite Sam drinking glass and Donald Duck bowl.  A Toucan Sam cup and a pair of Laurel & Hardy dolls round out this busy image.
Superhero posters and other paraphernalia are the order of the day at Harrison's.  This full color Green Lantern painting depicts the green one showing off his Power Ring.

What would a store in Salem, MA, be without some Halloween season items? These latex black bat and rat props could be put on your front porch to scare off any pranksters.
Next to DC and Marvel comics, anime and manga are probably second in popularity. This plush Totoro doll from the 1988 Hayao Miyazaki film My Neighbor Totoro looks quite huggable.


Mr. T will pity anyone who doesn't like this sculptured figure of him as Clubber Lang from Rocky III. Just keep it away from your Rocky Balboa figure.

The Flash would like to welcome you to Harrison's Comics and Collectibles. Life-size cardboard cut-outs of pop culture icons are a familiar sight here.



Boston Bruins merchandise was in demand as soon as they won last year's Stanley Cup. Harrison's Boston Bruins section will whet the appetite of any BB fan.



Yoda walks tall and carries a long lightsaber. Star Wars geeks will be in heaven when they enter Harrison's.
