Beistle Halloween Pirate Die Cuts

These early Beistle die cuts are probably my favorite ones found this year.

Witch's Brew

I wrote previously about the beer can collection I had when I was a kid.  Even though I don't drink beer, I'm still fascinated by the multitude and variations of the cans.  This can caught my eye this past spring.

Halloween -- It's My Bag Baby, Again

I know, it's a dated joke, from a dated (14-years-old) movie and I use it every year, but it's the truth. Halloween is indeed my bag, baby.

I'm once again participating in the Countdown to Halloween.  As always, my goal is a post per day, with no guarantees.  All year long, I save up my Halloween-related finds for for this month-long celebration.  And now it's finally time for the unveiling.

First up is the opening Trick or Treat bag for this Halloween Season.

Homemaking with a Flair 1970

"Homemaking with a flair" comes to us from the Fall of 1970. Just another booklet filled with expired coupons and dubious recipes. I don't know why people saved these. Maybe for the same reason I buy them.

If Your Child Fails to Grow Bigger, It's No Wonder

Today's pamphlet comes to us from the folks at Wonder Bread. Apparently, Fathers don't care how Wonder Bread helps his son (and let's face it, that's all we're worried about here.  Daughters should be weak and helpless) grow bigger and stronger.

Look What You Can Do...With Cottage Cheese!

The title of this pamphlet from Quality Dairy Products, a defunct dairy company here in St. Louis, hints that there were more of these pamphlets with different products following the ellipsis. 

What was on TV September 10th through 16th, 1977 - Fall Preview Issue

As I suspected, I have been less than productive in posting these Fall Preview issues. They're quite labor intensive with all the scanning and cropping, but I'll see if I can't get at least one more posted this season. Today's issue comes from 1977. Enjoy!
