Marvel Comics Superheroes Game Card (1978)

Does anyone out there remember the Marvel Comics Superheroes Card Game? I was pretty little when I got this, but basically it's "Old Maid" with Dr. Doom as the Old Maid. I played this quite a bit as a kid, and somehow it just got relegated to a shelf at my grandparents' house. When my grandmother passed away, I discovered it, and low and behold -- here it is for you. It is by far the most popular set of images I have on Flickr and a friend even used them in some cool videos he made. Be sure to click through for the whole collection of full-sized images.

Wright-Way Award Seals - J. S. Bach (1970s)

My grandmother was a piano teacher for the better part of fifty years, and when she passed away she left me her beautiful Kawai studio grand, and among the many items in the piano bench were these wonderful award stamps made by Wright-Way. I remember getting these put on my lesson book when I came prepared, and I'm sure many other piano students received them from their teachers over the years. I'm sure of the exact vintage of these, but I'll guess 1970s? Enjoy, and click through for full-sized images.
