I found some fun stuff at a flea market in DeSoto, MO this week: a Johnny Hart B.C. bowl (now I need the rest of the set!), some groovy 60's cake toppers, and a couple of McDonald's Fast Mac cars (got a Birdie the Breakfast Bird too!) All from one seller, already reasonably priced yet he was still having a 40% off everything sale so I got everything here for about $5.00 --you definitely can't beat that with a prehistoric caveman club!

You know, I never really liked reading B.C. that much, but I do love Johnny Hart's cartoon art (especially the stuff from the sixties). I think dishes are a perfect vector for it! Also I love that Officer Big Mac and his squad cruiser. But for me, the big winner this week are those hep teen cake toppers. All the cats join in!
Neat finds, thanks for sharing them with us.
Follow up Karswell, your famous face appeared on Svengoolie's show! A fan made a drawing of famous horror hosts (both tv and comic book) was featured on the gifts from viewer's segment.

It can be seen at the .45 and .51 second spots.
You now join the immortals of horrordom! It couldn't have happened to a nicer guy!
Follow follow up, you famous face and Morelock's face are to the left and slightly above Svengoolie's face. Sorry I didn't mention that earlier.
I love those old cake toppers. My next door neighbor when I was a kid had a birthday cake with space men cake toppers. I never had birthday cakes like that when I was a kid. When he wasn't looking, I snitched one of the figures. Oh, the shame...
I had a set of the 60's Beatles cake toppers and traded them for (what else?) Japanese robots!
JMR: Thanks for the heads up about the cool art piece and appearance on Svengoolie! WOW :)
