For Guys Who Spend A Lot Of Time Looking At Photos Of Catherine Bach

You can hide your obsession for the original Daisy Duke and your completely natural but perhaps embarrassing activities with said photo by scrapbooking the photos with 3-D paper embellishments. There are even Hoggco Gas Pumps for her to pose by.

Pan Am’s New 747 (Giveaway Contest!)

I’ve got too much stuff. So I’m giving a lot of it away. Not only on Listia (my review here), but even right here, at Kitschy Kitschy Coo — starting with this kitschy vintage postcard.

On the back of this vintage postcard it reads, “Pan Am’s New 747. The plane with all the room in the world.” Which dates it to 1966 or so.

There are a number of easy ways to enter; multiple entries are allowed.
