I'm posting this midday to make up for the missed posting yesterday.
The cat on this diecut is perched upon the nose of the moon who doesn't seem to mind.
It's made by Beistle and given it's heavy embossing, guess that it dates no later than the 1940's.
It's actually a swipe of a German design from the 1930's:

Both are great but the moon in the German one looks more devilish.
ReplyDeleteYeah, definitely some 'cutifying' of the original with the swipe!
Deleteyeah, i agree -- even with a devilish beard!
DeleteIt's the beard. They're inherently evil.
DeleteI prefer Beistles - I am not that crazy about facial hair on the moon.
ReplyDeleteLittle known fact: the astronauts discovered facial hair on the moon, but shaved it in a cover-up.
DeleteVery Cute!!!!!!!!
