    The Captain America Marvel Mini Book is one in a set of 6 released in 1966 via gumball vending machines. These are the smallest "comics" ever made, measuring just 5/8-in. x 7/8-in. with 50 black-and-white interior pages, and glossy covers (in various bright background colors). Whereas the Wham-O Giant Comics is the largest comics series ever produced (about full newspaper dimensions), this little Marvel Mini series of six represents the world's smallest comics set! The complete Marvel Mini Books series featured one book each for: Captain America, the Hulk, Millie the Model, Sgt. Fury, and Spider-Man, and Thor. Each title was released in six different colors (Blue, Green, Lime, Orange, Red and Yellow). NOTE: Way back in 1966, Buddy Saunders, MyComicShop's owner bought several bags of these little gems. Over the years, he gave many away to customers who placed back issue orders, and sold others for $5 to $10 each as they grew scarce. Today, these tiny little comics are very difficult to find, but make a cool addition to any comics collection.
