Hey guys
I posted a thread here on saturday of my weekend garage sale finds. Unfortunately, the thread was removed I presume because one of the items was some mini nudie playing cards, although I thought the pics were small enough to not really see anything. If I offended any one I apologize.
I thought I would repost the G rated version to share with you guys. I did not get a chance to log on after I posted the thread over the weekend so I missed most of the original comments.
First up, a matchbook from the "The Gayety Cafe" in Chicago. The matches on the inside feature a drawing of a nude woman.
Next up, are these mini playing cards. The cards cards are still in one strip perforated strip. They have a copyright date of 1967.
Along with the above "adult" items was this 1949 Freedom's War #109. This was the first time I found a vintage card at a garage sale, it got me pretty excited. I spent quite some time trying to find more but this was the only one.
At a second sale, I found this 1964 World Series Spin-a-fact. Its a pretty cool item, gives stats and facts for every world series up to that point. Measures 10" in diameter.
Finally, I found this Casino Royale Pressbook insert. It shows movie theatres how to promote the movie and how to put together the displays. Pretty cool little item. There is one on ebay but it has color pictures where mine is all black and white.
If anyone has any more information about these items, particularly the pressbook, I would love to hear them.
