Button 124: Yarn Man (# 3 of 6 in Don Simpson's MM series)

124. Yarn Man (1984).

Constructed almost entirely of ---yes--- intimidating orange yarn, Yarn Man was a loose parody of Ben Grimm, The Thing from Fantastic Four, who frequently yelled, "It's clobberin' time!!" Yarn Man's comparable battle mantra was "It's knit-one, purl-two time!!" Yarn Man was also Megaton Man's best friend. He even earned a one-shot Yarn Man spin-off comic of his own by ceator Don Simpson, from Kitchen Sink Press. Another of Yarn Man's famous phrases is captured on this button. (See also MM buttons #122-123, 125-127.) 2.25 inch diameter. $4.00

One note, for serious button collectors, you may want to read the KSP BUTTON TEXT which explains the numbering systems for identifying the various buttons produced over the last 30 years, or see the COMPLETE KSP BUTTON LIST. The list is VERY long, so be patient while it loads.
