Popped into a local thrift store the other day and bought a cute little $4 mystery grab-bag of "Halloween items." Got home and found the usual assortment of bandit masks, spider rings, and googlie eyed glasses, but! --also these 3 amazing vintage claws 'n fang packages with the fangtastic header card art-- which of course made it all the more worth the $4 splurge! It's officially October-- stay tombed for tons more horror and gore!
Great find! Those are awesome! I never find cool stuff at the thrifts.
ReplyDeleteSuch nostalgia! Definitely wore very similar teeth and nails at some point during my childhood! Have a great Countdown! :)
ReplyDeleteFun find! I'd put 'em in a shadowbox or something to preserve them yet be able to enjoy looking at them.
ReplyDeleteMoster Teeth, made in Hong Kong- it has been a long time since I have seen anything labeled made in Hong Kong. No doubt it was made for the monster kids growing up in the late 60's-70's.
ReplyDeleteFangs for sharing, Karswell.
Now I need a wikipedia entry to tell me the difference between "monster" and "Dracula" teeth!
ReplyDeleteSo the Frankenstein illustration is lifted, I wonder if the other two are, too? Regardless, neat find!
Don't forget the "Devil's Teeth" too... but yeah the "Monster Teeth" card was just the card itself, though the grab bag did include a set of the usual kind of glow in the dark fangs, loose.
ReplyDeleteLooks a lot like those Drak teeth have been gnawing on themselves in the blister card. Creeepy!
