    I'm finally gonna get Spidey's autograph!

    There's a reunion of the Sound of Music cast coming up in April in Burbank, and Nicholas Hammond is going to be there. I've got a buddy out in California who's going to take my vintage Spider-Man lobby card and get it signed for me!


    First time Mr. Hammond's been stateside in a long time.

    Awesome! Congrats to you. I always like Hammond as Spider-Man. Peter too.

      Yep! I still freaking LOVE that costume. Despite all the fancy new stuff, he's still the best looking Spidey after all these years IMO. His suit actually looks homemade, and those creepy insect-like eyes are just awesome.
      I wish Hot Toys would make this version.

          Super jealous to hear.

          I have a movie poster for his Spidey in my son's room, he did look killer.

            Awesome! Although I was slightly bummed to learn Hammond didn't wear the costume that often. It was usually stuntman/coordinater Fred Waugh.

            I did like Hammond as Peter though!

                Congrats on snagging what is certain to be a great addition to your collection! And thanks for posting the actual lobby card; makes me realize how much they really did replicate Spidey's costume faithfully on the TV show. The colors, the weblines----all of them are virtually Romita, Sr. come to life!
                sigpic Oh then, what's this? Big flashy lighty thing, that's what brought me here! Big flashy lighty things have got me written all over them. Not actually. But give me time. And a crayon.

                  I've always wondered how Hammond felt about the role looking back on it.
                  Good score if hes able to get it autographed.

                    I like Hammond's Spidey costume except for the eyes...never liked those eyes.

                        There is a nice book published by TwoMorrows called "Age of TV Heroes". Hammond is interviewed, and he looks back on the show fondly. Seems like a nice guy.

                            Hammond brought Spidey to life in the 70's, so I will always have fond memories of him. They did the best they could at that time and that worked pretty good for me. I just wished they didn't have him crawling like a crab instead of a spider. But it would be a great experience to be able to get his autograph. Fond memories and from what I have heard, a very nice fellow. Congrats!
