Weekend Special
Ain't we got fun!
Lord a'mighty! Even when I stumbled, yesterday, upon my cache of postcards, so assiduously collected in the early Eighties, the bulb didn't light up right away. It took until now, an ordinarily lazy Saturday morning cranked by broken records in the visitors stats, to hatch the devious plan. CAUTION: the cards below the fold may be offensive. Indeed, they will certainly be offensive! What's the weekend for?
From a kinder, gentler era...
...and from an earlier, crude period...
I believe that booklets such as the one that this reprint comes from were known as "Tijuana Bibles"; aside from the very graphic artwork (and this is pretty mild, believe me), their raciness stems from the use of popular mass media figures, such as (here) Oliver Hardy.
And, finally (for now), something from - what would you say? - more innocent? less innocent? times. There are doubtless a few chuckleheads out there who will point to this image to explain 9/11.
There are LOTS more where these came from, but you'll have to ask.

I've got one of Elvis shaking hands with Richard Nixon...I think that's kinky.

Finally, something I can relate to! Call me silly, call me crazy, call me philistine! Smiles!

Very nice. Allison has one of Nancy R. sitting on Mr. T's lap in what looks like a room at the Whitehouse. T,. of course, is in full gold mode.
