1944 - This Fawcett Publications character appeared decades before Marvel acquired the rights to the name Captain Marvel. DC eventually won a prolonged legal battle for rights to the super hero, and renamed him Shazam! *NOTE* This is the original packaging ONLY - The contents are long gone, only the paper sleeve has survived. The flap seems sealed from years of preservation (I didn't want to try to pry it open). Approximately 7" x 10". If you collect really old super hero memorabilia, don't pass on this one.
