geppi's entertainment museum

This is a great place if you love comics or pop culture history. I have been here a couple of times and each time, I fall a little more in love with it. If you have ever picked up a comic book, or love the Marvel and DC movies - you will find something to love here. Go! Go! Go!

Geppi's is a nice museum. Lots of cool things to look at, good information here too. Attended some events at Geppi's which were nice catered events and everyone liked Geppi's a lot.

Great collection of the stuff your mother made you toss. Comics, movie posters, toys, games. If only you hadn't listened to her ...

Visiting a friend in Baltimore and decided to see something off the beaten path. Very glad I did. Went on a Thursday and admission was half price, which was a nice surprise. Very cool place with tons of pop culture memorabilia. Comic book section was amazing and was cool to see some of the old comics I had as a kid.

Kids thought it was really cool. About the only thing I did not see was Major Matt Mason. There is something for any age to see. Located across from Camden Yards. AAA discount too.

Great museum with comic books, toys, games and the memorabilia from decades past. Located right at Camden Yards its convenient and lots of fun.

Excellent find in the Camden Train station on the second floor. Ton's of rare comic books, old movie posters, toys, cereal boxes ect. All arranged in a chronological type of order. 13 year old loved it and even the 9 year old was entertained, parents probably liked it best of all. AAA discount and knowledgable and friendly employees.

Just go and enjoy! Only because I just got a fresh cup of coffee will I add more: This is a great colorful trip through many of America's most popular TV/movie/comix/pulp (inexpensive!) diversions from mostly the turn of the 19th century to right about now. There are eight comfortably packed galleries and a wonderful high-ceilinged hallway that features more stuff than many specialty collections contain. You can get a better rundown on all that's featured (including special exhibitions) in other reviews or on Geppi's webpage, but no one should be dissuaded from checking out this attraction because of any perceived or implied focus on comic books or superheroes, because, while there is certainly a lot of that, there is also a lot more - movies, western/detective/teen TV shows and movies, comic strips (with lots of wonderful original art), games, toys, Big Little Books figurines, etc. And by TV shows I mean everything from Howdy Doody to the Man from Uncle; cartoons and characters from Popeye to Batman (oh, yeah, that was a TV show too!); films from Star Wars to Planet of the Apes (and Batman again!); all the great mindwarping diversions and perils of childhood, schoolkid crushes, rock&roll hormones, pop propaganda!, stuff that frightened adults and later became the stuff of nostalgia, etc. I grew up with Marvel, DC, Andy's Gang, watching 10 cartoons before a double-feature, giving shows with my Viewmaster projector in the backyard of our little pink house (really - and with plastic pink flamngoes in the flowerbed), going to the drive-in at least once a week, and flipping baseball cards in the schoolyard. So there's a ton of stuff at Geppi's to engage me for sure. But here's the best part - the five people who went with me (ages 13-55), in part to indulge me, probably could've stayed there longer than me. Not only did they, of course, connect with most of their own favorite characters and toys and movies, but they were also fascinated by the earlier items, the pop cultural "antiquities" and precursors. The only conspicuously missing thing was a fitting tribute to The Farmer's Daughter, Inger Stevens, who owned my heart and soul when I was in seventh grade; I still believe she could've beaten Patty Duck (as Patty or Cathy) in a wrestling bout.

This was a hidden gem for us. We locals visited with our relatives from NJ, and found worlds of comic books dating way back, but most interesting is the Collection of toys and memorabilia! We loved the things from the 50's , 60's and 70's. Brought back memories of the good old days, and some fun family discussions. There's much more here than you can predict, and it was informative with lots I didn't know. Just come and experience your childhood again! It's even better the second time!

Geppi’s Entertainment Museum is a must see for anyone who is a comic book fan, pop culture fan or wants a trip down nostalgia lane. On the second floor of a building, one walks up a flight of stairs that have paintings and posters of comic book characters and toys from a different era.My wife and entered and was met by a very nice girl wearing a Nostromo outfit (from the movie “Alien”) who took out admission fee and explained the museum and how to visit the rooms. The first was a room filled with a large collection of comic books and a selection of Big Little Books. Other rooms included various toys and collectibles from different eras. One room had a collection devoted to Baltimore and Steve Geppi (the man whose collection gave birth to this museum). There is also a museum store that sold comics and collectibles. There we met the same girl that greeted us at the beginning. She also told us that she had a facehugger to go with her outfit but we didn’t see it. Since it was Halloween, she showed us comics that were available for free for Halloween ComicFest. That was a nice surprise. If you ever visit Baltimore, I suggest you visit this place. It is near the Orioles baseball stadium.

We loved walking through seeing all the old comic books, movie posters, classic toys and games, lunch boxes and more. A fun trip down memory lane! The collection is huge and they constantly rotate exhibits. The memories just come flooding back.

Geppi's is so much fun. You can get lost looking at all the comic books in all the rooms. I didn't realize it would be so big or so much fun just roaming around. The gift shop is even lot of fun. I was brought back to my childhood and my 10 year old daughter just didn't want to leave. VERY WELL WORTH THE TRIP.

The Geppi Entertainment Museum is sure to delight any adult who has played a board game, played with toys, watched television and movies, played records, or read comic books. It is a collection of memories far greater than I expected, and a delightful poke at nostalgia from my childhood to the present. From early televisions with footage of the Honeymooners, I Love Lucy, and others--- to the lovable Disney characters, ET, Howdy Doody, and other greats----and yet so much more, the 2 hours spent there brought a smile to my face around each corner. The collection is artfully arranged in many rooms and halls by eras which correspond somewhat to decades. Woven into the entertainment ephemera are significant dates in history. The tour begins with a heavy emphasis on Geppi's comic book collection which is amazing and continues to highlight all aspects of the field of entertainment. It is housed on the second floor of the Sports Legends Museum, next to Camden Yards. Easy access by light rail or car. Check Groupon for discounted tickets. Plan to spend at least two hours there searching through the displays for toys and games from your childhood. You'll be happy you chose to do so.

Geppi's Entertainment Museum is a really cool place if you are in to comic books. This museum houses a HUGE comic book collection and more! There were some really cool displays and the gift shop was really cool!

I'm a big comic book fan, so Geppi's was a priority visit while in town for the weekend. But the overall museum is good for anyone who likes memorabilia; they'll find things from their past and childhood no matter what, and lots of interesting other things to explore.There's a nice mix of collectibles in the place covering a pretty wide range of eras and topics, and the layout is nice and easy to cover in an hour or two. My only minor complaint is that there were not quite enough commentary plaques on the displayed items; the place is more of a showcase of items than a museum, but that's all I can critique.The gift shop was also a nice part of the visit.
