Ditko's high school yearbook is up for sale on eBay:

It's not Steve's own copy, obviously, but it's from the year he graduated and there are some pics of him in it:





(Somebody might want to use that as an avatar for the All-Steve theme we'll be doing at IMWAN this weekend. )

Nice. Thanks for the photos, Linda.
Weekend Ditko Bash?

Why not the following weekend which is closer to his birthday?
Still, any Ditko Bash is good.
What's on tap for it?

It's a Steve weekend, and Mr. Ditko is a Steve.

Ah, saw "All-Steve" and thought
All-Ditko-All-Of-The-Time

but I do that a lot.

Nice

Joe R told me a wee while ago the last time he was in New York he bumped into Ditko in the street near his office.Said he was very nice

NERD ALERT!
