The Fantomen Finn Felen Contest (which translates to The Phantom Find The Error Contest) was held by Semic Press in Sweden in 1968. The contest required the reader to locate errors found in an image of the Phantom and Guran, specifically to locate four missing details in the Phantoms costume. The front cover of edition number 10 containing the contest can be seen below.
Found in the center page of the comic book, we see a full page advertisement promoting the contest. The contest was held only in this edition, requiring the reader to locate four errors found in an image of the Phantom and Guran published within the comic book. A coupon was then required to be posted to the publisher with the correct answer written on the coupon, with the entrants address details. The Fantomen Finn Felen Contest in the center of the comic book can be seen below.
Translated to English, the contest page reads:
FIND THE ERROR
The ruler of the jungle on his throne in the Skull Cave! But there is something that is not quite right and it is precisely that which Guran holds in his clothing that is not quite correct. Four important things to explain to his master. It is the Phantom’s details that are missing from our hero. Some of them may be a little trickier to trick out. When you have found out which details are missing from the Phantom’s clothing, fill in the coupon on the page and send it to “FINN FELEN”, FANTOMENS TAV LINGSEXP., FACK. STOCKHOLM 200.
We want your solution by the 21st! The list of winners and the correct solution will be in issue 18.
Two prizes were offered by Semic Press for the winners of the Fantomen Finn Felen Contest. The first 7 winners received a cash prize of various values, with the 8th prize offering 25 entrants a consolation prizes given out which were “glow-in-the-dark Phantom rings”, which can be seen below.
