I don't know why, but I've been in a bit of a Space Ghost mood lately, so here's some classic Space Ghost merchandise to go along with it. Long before he was an Adult Swim icon, he was an icon of bath accessories, of all things. Alongside him is Frankenstein Jr., or "Franky, Jr.", as the packaging names him.
For something a bit more interesting, look to these four frame-tray puzzles Whitman released based on the show. I'm not quite sure who did the art for these, but they look lovely. I'd have loved to see a Space Ghost comic in this style.
I've saved the most interesting piece for last. Well, it's as interesting as a Space Ghost paper saver could be. What's so captivating about it, you ask? Take a look at the fellow at the bottom right.
You won't see anyone who looks like that in the show, but below is how the character of Zorak looked in the Gold Key comics. I'm assuming this design was an early take on Zorak that both Gold Key and the company that made this ended up using. Likely, both things were in production before the character's design was finalized.
