Here’s a storage solution that is hardly ever utilized these days, hide all your unwanted junk behind the most discordant image imaginable. That way, when you get the urge to throw something out, the pattern will overload your senses, you’ll likely wet yourself and forget your first name. It’s the Batman Blu-Ray Giveaway Contest! To […]
Being a lad, the allure of Holly Hobbie completely missed me but the number of times I saw her back in the day makes me think that she was something of a rock star in that “girl world” of which I still know little to nothing about. I will admit to being somewhat nostalgic for […]
Women just can’t control themselves around singing duos, it’s a fact. Fake turtlenecks really put these boys over the county line of score town…I can’t believe I haven’t mentioned the amazing work of Wishbook Web yet. If you like department store catalogs, then you need to check this place out. These maniacs scan each and […]
Got a great couple of vintage images this week from Dan Brackett, who here is opening up his Shogun Warriors Mazinga (man that box looks sweet) and behind him is a Bat-Away set. Dan says he managed to replace the Bat-Away on Ebay for under $10 but no such luck on Mazinga… Want to see […]

No it’s not a scene from Space:1999, it’s an ad for Mojvae! Carpet. I never seem to discuss one of the most pinnacle things about the 70’s, Shag carpeting. It’s one of those things so associated with the era, I get happy when i see it. Coincedently, I fly into a murderous rage when i […]
My Pal Sharry sent me this one based on the classic 70’s TV series. The book is by Rand McNally. the people best known for Road Atlases and the like. You’d think they’d have come up with a kid’s division name but this is back when the company expanded into children’s products. The art in […]
