Star Trek II: The Wrath Of Khan

Clipped by me from a Beckley, WV newspaper on Friday, June 4, 1982.

Clipped from The New York Times on Sunday, June 6th, 1982..

The ad below was clipped from the WV newspaper one day before the big event. You know I was excited.

From the Scrapbook:

A couple of drawings taped in the scrapbook, the top was done about 1972 or so, when I discovered Star Trek and became a lifelong fan (so far). I was about 13 years old. The second I did about 1974 when I knew a bit more about it.

Welcome to my vintage newspaper movie ad blog!

When I was younger I clipped out the ads of the movies I wanted to go see and put them in a scrapbook. I also enjoyed hunting through old newspapers I would find here and there, and saving the ads from those as well. Some that I've gleaned from relative's old closets and attics go back to the 50's!

Rather than let them sit there in the old notebook I saved them in, I decided I'd share them with you. Every single entry on this blog page are from actual newspaper clippings that I own and have scanned in, so click on any image to view biggie size.

Although this blog will mostly feature nostalgic vintage newspaper movie ads, I'll also throw in an occasional newspaper article about the movie that I found, as well as ads and items from various TV guides about movies and shows that I liked. And who knows what else? That dog-eared 37-year-old notebook is packed with goodies. Hopefully "Held Over!" will be fun to visit and will reawaken some of your own memories!
