THE CYBERMAN AND THE DOCTOR WHO TEE

Here's another familiar advertisement from the pages of Marvel UK in the early 1980s: the ubiquitous Peter Davison (NOT Davidson!) DOCTOR WHO tee, as modelled by this pleased-as-punch Earthshock Cyberman.

The art is by Rod Vass, the identity of the Cyberman unknown.  According to the text, the t-shirt was "approved by the B.B.C" which, certainly today, is a non-standard way of writing the Corporation's name.  But the Beeb must have authorised the copy in the advert too, surely.

This advert appeared across the Marvel line at the time... for months.
