Those 70’s TV Shows
I just scored some vintage new old stock (NOS) TV show books and stuff from Whitman Publishing. Among them a Fat Albert activity book (just in time for his 40th birthday) and a Donny & Marie coloring book with paper dolls of the duo on the back. (Inside you can color and then cut out the fashions for the dolls; but, nope, there’s no Mormon undies to color inside.) I’ve a few more goodies from this stash to sell and share here at Kitschy Kitschy Coo, so stay tuned!
Not Even Sophia Loren Can Sex Them Up
Hubby and I always joke that one day we’ll collect the giant forks and spoons that hang on the walls… It was such a kitschy fad! Not even Sophia can sex up this kitsch. Via.

To Boldly Go Where Aliens Have Already Been
We can thank New Wave Science Fiction and its experimental “what if” nature of soft science for everything from Star Trek (and so fake Spock toys) to works which emphasized “hypothesis” of ancient human-extraterrestrial contact. It’s the last group, the sensationalized books which are the fodder of Roswell conspiracists, which seem to find me. Like this stack of retro paperbacks. Hey, Star Trek may have been the most accurate in terms of technological predictions; but Chariots Of The Gods has given us all Ancient Aliens on the History Channel. Yeah, that’s not much of a defense. But a few of them might be kind of fun to read… Or not. I can’t promise anything in any direction.
