Great title huh? I found this little bit of pain at a flea market and I actually paid $2 for it. This is one of those things you got for free when your mom bought toothpaste or you could actually pay $0.25 for it, if you did that, you’re as dumb as me. I bought […]
Oh Snap! We are back with another installment of Colouring Book Theatre, thanks to my pal Sharry. I try not to go this long but it’s hard to find affordable vintage colouring books to review in my neck of the woods.Sharry’s Lassie book is autographed by Jon Provost, who played Timmy (the guy who never […]
It’s been entirely too long since I’ve done Colouring Book Theatre but I finally found one at a flea market last week that seemed fitting. Dune is possibly the worst colouring book I’ve ever reviewed, not because it’s badly done but because it has no freaking business being a colouring book! This is Hollywood ignorance […]
It’s time to bring the pain again with this gem from 1978. Benji as most 70’s kids know was an adorable trained dog that starred in a series of films and was the brain child of Joe Camp. I found this at the same truck stop/flea market that I bought the horrible Fantastic Four Book […]
This week’s book comes courtesy of Sharry, who tells me the book is filled with several goofy mini stories.As a kid I never much dug the Bionic Woman, mostly because I was forced to sit through it thanks to an older. bigger sister. This 1976 opus is by a company called Treasure Books, I like […]
Sharry brought me this welcome site this week, another wonderful piece of toy tie in merchandising from the era before toy based cartoons. Big Jim was Mattel’s response to parental outrage to war toys in the late sixties (which also made G.I. Joe an adventurer) here was a good natured sportsman who enjoyed things like […]
I’m working this weekend (Boooo!) so I can’t do CBT, what I can do is show this cool article from the toy industry for Saalfield who had some killer licenses in 1975. I’ve already reviewed the Speed Buggy book here. For some reason, I’d love to get my hands on the Korg and Valley of […]
Leave it to Sharry to provide us with what is perhaps the most culturally signifigant colouring book ever produced. Based on the landmark sitcom of whose quality has never been surpassed, Diff’rent Strokes follows the gripping adventures of Willis and Arnold Jackson and their adopted family, the blandest people alive, the Drummonds. The art in […]
I picked up this 1979 Whitman coloring book at one of my “Wishbook haunts” (a smelly room full of used books at a truck stop where the guy also guesses my height and weight) and paid a whole dollah for it. To be honest, I think I spent too much as this has to be […]
Today’s colouring book is courtesy of Sharry, who has an enviable collection! Unlike probably most 70’s kids, I’m not all that well versed with the Partridge Family, we didn’t get UHF channels until much later and when we did I only really saw the characters in cartoon form (Through “Goober and the Ghost Chasers” and […]
