Love the Red Rose Tea and Snipe cards! Wasn't sure how many this would offend in the Sports forum (since I can't even type the correct word in these forums), though I guess it could go there. The only "rooster" fighting card I'm aware of....

1915 Susini (Cuba)

begsu1013 · September 4, 2015 2:23PM

kyle,

this is a great card! ironically enough we just got back from san juan and there was a "clock" fighting arena right across from our hotel.

we got in on thursday night (same night as tropical storm erika) and were looking for something to do, as they closed the casinos down in case of a power outage.

anyway, i know it's a taboo subject, but when we travel we like to keep our american customs at the airport and indulge in the local culture and customs.

here is the arena. it was quite impressive and not at all the mental picture people tend to think of:

This is a great thread! Thanks & keep it up...

What is the "Chunk" card of the woman on a bike all about?

Fun and interesting images throughout!

gsalex · September 7, 2015 4:16PM

I totally stumbled on this thread and found it so amusing I had to add my favorite Charlie's Angels card. I only hope the humor stacks up well against the other posts here.

<< when we travel we like to keep our american customs at the airport and indulge in the local culture and customs. >>

The only way to truly experience the culture you are visiting, IMHO

gsalex, looks like another entertainment set I may have to track down

From the movie The Goonies (1985).

1978 HA! "muppets" #41

statler + waldorf >>

I never realized how funny those guys were! Hilarious!
The time they are going back and forth with Milton Berle was classic!

begsu1013 · October 7, 2015 10:24AM

definitely my favorite muppets today. as we get older their humor grows funnier and funnier to me.

a keen similarity lies w/ "the dukes" in the movie trading places and subsequently for a brief sec in "coming to america"

begsu1013 · October 8, 2015 4:58AM

as ya can tell by the scan, I've had this one for a while, but trying to keep the halloween theme going thru october:

Those Columbo's are great! I just picked up a PSA/DNA Peter Falk index card that would fit in nicely with them. I may have to track those down.

Love that Nessie too!
