Old ads, comics, and more...

Hi Teresa,

Just wanted to say I was excited to see an ad for Bear Brand hosiery on the blog, as my grandfather worked for them as an engineer, and received patents for improvements to sock-making machinery, along with his brother.  Kismet! ---UltraLameFest2

bloody, stinky, squirting novelty ads

I like this last ad best. While some of these cards would land a person in jail for impersonating, say, a sheriff... others are just odd.  A beauty judge? A graduate of the school of matrimony? Each "joke" entry includes a disclaimer about how it is for joke purposes only yet the whole point is to fool others. Gives you permission to examine dead bodies and hold investigations? Nobility card--represents you as a member of the royal family and gives you permission to marry a person of wealth and position. Impressive coat-of-arms emblem.

They forgot to include a fake bathmat factory employee card. The benefits alone would be worth the ten cents!

Maybe I'm taking this too literally or this means something I don't know...
