Proof that Humor existed before Garbage Pail Kids!

gurglesIt’s Wednesday, so get your lasso ready…it’s time for eBay roundup! This week we have for you this beautiful Wacky Packages collectible. Seller Baggage872 (99.7% positive feedback) describes it as a “Sticker [that] was produced by the Topps trading card company in 1973. Item is in excellent condition and is packaged in a PVC card holder. Sticker has a tan back with no writing on back. The colors are vibrant and sharp. Item will be shipped in bubble wrap envelope.” You heard right…a bubble wrap envelope that you could probably reuse.

I don’t know about you, but I can’t wait to pay $4 plus $2 shipping for an illustration of a child with droplets of mercury wiggling off of his tongue. (No wonder the kid is cross-eyed.) And the “Poor Spout” is pure genius! You have about 2 days (from time of post) to bid on this exquisite piece of comedy history.

DON’T MISS OUT.
