Hanover House '67 Gift Guide (PART THREE)
Third and final part to our Hanover House '67 gift catalog highlights, plus some full page xmas goodies to really break your bank. And wow, the fun just never freakin' stops! Seriously, pull up those money garters, and strap on a go-go wig, the Krazy Klok says it's party time! Or stay inside and show your slave who's boss by saying so on a pillow! Yes, frost your glass and drop in a couple monogrammed ice cubes before you start crackin' that whip!
(FYI: I've noticed a lot of my images appearing on tumblrs and facebook photo groups without any link or credit back to my blog. Please people, if you're going to share my scans please take the extra second to acknowledge where you got the image, I definitely don't want to have to start watermarking my stuff just because you can't find interesting stuff on your own! Thank you.)

Hanover House '67 Gift Guide (PART ONE)
What'cha gettin' everyone this xmas? What? Still undecided?! Well, then flip through these pages of the Hanover House Gift Guide from 1967 and maybe you'll find something fun to give to that special someone-- or just maybe you'll find some neato stuff for yourself to make your holiday cooler and less of a headache. Hanover House was based out of Hanover, PA and like the other competitor mail order joints of the era (see Sunset House HERE and HERE in the AEET Archive) they had a seemingly endless supply of cool gadgets and funny festive junk to keep you coming back for more each and every year. Todays post consists of items from their color catalog pages and are full of really great little illustrations and kitsch. I'll have more from the rest of the black and white pages in our next post (could be two more posts, we'll see how it goes-- plus I'm blowing everything up 300%!)
