Vintage Roulette: Comic Books (1957 - 1975)

Cartoon rabbits, mummies, ghosts, rockin' pussycats, hen-pecked husbands and romance…

What more could a person possibly want? Many thanks to Noreen and Jimmy for these gems.

Tra-La-La... It's The Banana Splits!

One banana, two banana, three banana, four...

Here's a few pictures of my latest eBay score.

A four track 7-inch single made in 1969.

The Banana Splits sure knew how to have a good time!

Tra-la-la, La-la-la-la, Tra-la-la, La-la-la-la.

Vintage Roulette: Comic Books (1947 - 1975)

Current blog fodder and future collage source material...

Another excellent stash of old comics from my friends Noreen and Jimmy.

1960s Commercial Stills: The Flintstones For Winston Cigarettes

That's was ONE surefire way to make sure the kids started smoking ASAP.

A few short years later, these very same cartoon characters were selling vitamins...  Go figure.

1960s Commercial Stills: Quisp Saves The Universe

This alien propellerhead knows how to get things done.

Not only did he knit a rogue ball of outer space yarn into a giant necktie 

so its loose strings wouldn't jam up that pesky rush hour space traffic, 

he actually had time to stop and eat a bowl of Quisp along the way. 

Little Lulu Says...

Lookie! Two 1940s Kleenex ads featuring Lulu, who also had a neon billboard in Times Square during this decade.
