Earth 2 Chris

Yes,  a few minor knicks aroudn the frame, but the puzzle pieces themselves are perfect, and the colors are bright and vibrant. I was ecstatic to find it! It was hidden behind some other old puzzles, including a Disney Zorro one I almost bought, but I already have a similar one.

Got this 1968 wrapper for rub-on tattoos not too long ago, I think I had these when I was a kid...

I think I had some of these as a kid.  The wrapper jogged a memory in me.  Thanks for sharing.

Scored both the regular and variant lithographs of Greg Staples Bride of Frank today. They are still available at Sideshow Collectibles.

I got this at a flea market a couple of Sundays ago. It's a vinyl cyclops from the 1960's with a blinking eye made by Arrow Industries. They made a male and a female. This is the female. They're hard to find. They were made in different colors, this one is purple in front and blue in back. I've seen yellow, pink, green, and blue. I payed one dollar for it. The last auction on E-bay for one was a yellow female that ended at $209.50.

She's supposed to have eyelashes on her upper eye lid, but for a dollar, I'm not complaining.

False eyelashes are cheap.  Get some and glue them in place.  It will really make a difference.

I was thinking about doing that. Maybe I'll get eyelashes from an old cheap doll.

I would assume they used a pre-existing source or mold for the lashes so should be able to find one.
