What’s snazzier than this red retro television set?
Perhaps this dapper turtle riding down a slide in his OWN shell?

If you pull the lever at the bottom right, he really does slide. See?
And in keeping with the red theme, here’s a keen card for a grandson.

I don’t know Gramp and Gram from Adam, but I bet they were fine grandparents. Who wouldn’t feel loved, receiving one of these, assuming kids actually READ them?



I think back then kids did read their birthday cards, but not so much today. Kinda sad that they don’t.

I read mine. You just reminded me that EVERY card I get lately is covered with glitter! When did that fad start? I don’t need to look like I just stepped off the pole.

I started going to estate sales when I was in high school and just always liked to collect little pieces of history before they got tossed out, so I bought these cards. You know, I thought of your blog earlier today bc my 92 yr old grandpa was sent to the hospital at 6am w/ pneumnonia, and I really really want him to heal up & be strong & I hate that these Greatest Generation guys are leaving. I’ll just keep praying all day…

It is really sad. I could kick myself for not collecting more stories years ago. The obits are full of them everyday. God bless them, they were the best.
