We had to do this to our exercise books at school. People used wallpaper. Top marks to the lad who used woodchip.

I can’t even guess how many hours I played with this. I absolutely loved mine.

I remember my younger sisters having these. The dolls were heavy cardboard, and the clothes were basically paper, and most of the time they had to be cut out with a scissors. They didn't last long because if the clothes got wet, they would slowly disintegrate.

I'm baffled. In Germany, we had these too, but not with actual real tobacco-brands.

Heck yeah. Awesome, and still have a ton of vintage equipment.

Many years later, I learned that the collar and the bowtie were part of the cartoonists' tricks to make animating the heads faster and easier.

Wow! I miss him!

I can hear this picture 🐮

And recording songs off the radio with my cassette player and getting ticked off when he started talking at the end of the songs. Lol

Grandma had a silver one. Wish I had it. It was freakin indestructible.

It does give the wood flavour.

How mine still looks, so ner!

Crikey, what a good guy.

Indeed! Pure bliss!

Still have my nans

Still is. At least in Germany

Do you remember when you could still BUY stuff with just the coins you had in your coin holder?

I used to love orange crème pops. I just a yogurt that was flavored orange creme and it brought me back.

And usually the telephone sat on top of the phone book….

These still exist...

I had the sort with the rubber band propeller

My mom still does this. I'm 36.

Still use it for all those!!

Mighty Mouse is on the way!

We had this exact linoleum kitchen floor until WELL into the 90s XD

Still use them ;-)

Still have mine

Also the strawberry flavor with veins of strawberry

Love big brother snuggling with younger sibling 😊

Remember? LPs are a thing again

They were 'banned' (really they just stop showing the cartoons) because they were characters created from racist tropes. Many of the characters from Looney Toons and Hanna Barbara were extremely racist and stereotypes. They weren't part of 'our culture' or 'our history' - they were blatant examples of systemic racism in the USA. And to those who said, 'They were just cartoons!' - yes, just cartoons, so why do you miss them or need them?

Yep - learned to read with D**k, Jane, and Sally

I will gladly pay you Tuesday for a hamburger today

I still have one, kept it when I cleared my mothers home.

She has burn scars over 75% her body from a childhood accident. When she was coming up with this character, she had a close friend who worked in costumes design her an outfit that was as revealing as possible without showing her scars. That's how her iconic dress was designed!

I was in love with Mr. green Jeans.

'U' shaped safety-pins with blue or pink enamelled tops!

Without her most prolly we wouldn't have met the Star Trek crew...

My daughter is only 20 and I had a version of this for her.....same swing just an updated seat design

The moustache as a symbol. You either looked very homosexual or very heterosexual. Tom is hetero.

Clackers!

Last of the Summer Wine.

I read Archie comics as a kid in the 80s! You used to be able to buy them at the grocery store. There was a whole spinning rack full of comics.

If you were a child of the 80s, your parents still HAD the Avocado Green appliances from the 70s... XD

A sociopath with delusions and sadistic tendencies and a beautiful woman who is now embarrassed to be associated with him in any way.

My brother did; I don't think it was for the plot.

Bit off the wax top and sucked the sweet liquid out

Europe celebrated also, before the reconstruction. And before Central and Eastern Europe dove in their dark times.

Did someone use a Sharpie on John's head on the top picture?
