gwalchmai Posted March 9 Author Share Posted March 9 Y'all ever collect Batman bubble gum cards in the 60s? They had a little mystery written on 'em that BM would solve. One I recall is when a bank robber refused to tell Chief O'Hara where he hid his loot, saying "I'll never run outta gas now!" Batman correctly deduced that the money was hidden in a tank at a local Gotham National Guard parking lot. i.e., his tank was full... Many are called but few are chosen. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We all know that dinosaurs and humans were on Earth at the same time. I have seen The Flintstones, my friend. Hanna-Barbara wouldn't produce something that isn't true. Well, maybe the talking bear wasn't quite true. But, we do know that bears wore a green necktie and hat. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sentient dinosaurs using biological technology, rather than mechanical. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gwalchmai Posted March 15 Author Share Posted March 15 My wife is in the estate sale bidness. I help tote stuff sometimes. She had a client with several of this size and bigger tins. Turns out he collected them from every eatery/drinkery he patronized forever. This one didn't sell so I got it for a song (I chose the Captain America song from the Saturday cartoon)... 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
