Before we get into another mmm-mmm-good month of annual Valentine Madness here at AEET, I have quite a few birthday wishes to get out of the way to those who celebrate that magical event this Feb! And here it comes in one big 'ol lump post, via a single sinsational card, aka a jolly Jesters Forget-Me-Not 60's classic found yesterday at an antiquer mall. The original recipient seems to have been affectionately known as "Potts", and I think that's hilariously cute. It's almost as cute as the artwork featured on the card itself. And yes, if my photos aren't quite translating the overall silly sex 'n drunks punchline enough, that's a mirror glued inside the card... does this reflect upon any of you, too? Jesters seriously had the best greeting card mascot ever.
Happy February Birthday to all that apply!
I love the weird juxtaposition of chunks of time here. First you have one of those 60s sex & drugs comedy cards, but the mirror joke is befouled by 2000s digital technology .... which itself delivers this piece of comedy to us.
ReplyDeleteI won't say it's a full circle but it's at least 20 degrees of one!
Look what drinking, smoking, partying and overindulgence of sex did to this poor fellow-
ReplyDeleteWhat? You got that way and you didn't even enjoy yourself in the process?
I can only wonder if after so many years Potts body has gone to pot.
The mascot is cute, I could imagine him as the joker on a deck of cards designed especially for youngsters.
