Keep Care of Your Hair


Here are some unusual pieces from my collection: two of the Mighty Atom's hairpins and an unused label from his special hair tonic.

Atom's DC-3 Attempt


This picture, from my collection, was taken in 1939 when the Atom attempted to pull a DC-3. Ed Spielman wrote "Having failed to get it moving, he enlisted the aid of five aircraft personnel who pulled on his arms to get the silver bird to break its station. Instead, they nearly broke his neck."

If you haven't read Ed's book, you will surely want to pick it up. It is wonderfully written and inspiring.

Shimshon Agibar


When I was going through my papers on the Atom I found this copy of a poster that I made off of an original from his personal scrapbooks. The original must be from the late 1920's, as it refers to him as "The Modern Samson."

Contemplating His Next Gig?


Another “Thinker Pose”- In leopard skin trunks and wrists bands the Atom perhaps sits contemplating his next gig.

Little Man with Tremendous Power


This is the flip side of the 2 sided large Mighty Atom poster (front below).

It features pictures of his tremendous hair feats as well as him having two men bend an iron bar over the bridge of his nose and a prize fighter punching him in the stomach.

Both sides of the poster are in english and hebrew.

Smallest Strong Man in the Universe


That's what the small print said about the Atom in this large two-sided poster.

National Health University President declared the Mighty Atom as the "Greatest Sensational Attraction of This Century!"

The poster also states "Featured over R.K.O. Vaudeville Circuit at $3000 Weekly Before Depression."
