Click the picture to see a larger more detailed image. You get 12 for $3 (that's 25¢ each). Vintage large 12" tall advertising bib giveaway featuring the A & W root beer mascot "The Great Root Bear". They are also marked "Copyright A & W International 1978". The bib has a pocket at the bottom to catch food and ties at the top. 1978 was the year A & W standardized their menus at franchises and started using the bear mascot in the United States (he was a couple of years earlier in Canada). These early Root Bear items are very scarce. His run as the chain mascot lasted all the way into the late 1990s. These are unused old stock in near perfect condition. We bought these right, and passing quite a deal on to you.

#TZCards145 - Complete Set of 32 Different Blind Date for Men Pinup Arcade Cards

Complete set of 32 Exhibit Supply Blind Date for Men cards. Each one has a corny little story with 1940s humor many have what were considered risque poses for the time. The copyright date is 1941, which is the date the machines that dispensed these for a penny were originally made. The Exhibit Supply Company made them for the machines for years after.

We have a large lot of Exhibit Supply cards that we found in unopened bricks (you can see a picture of some of the bricks at the top of this department (Trading Card Shop). They are from a closed penny arcade. This is about the only way you would ever be able to find complete sets. The problem still is that there are more of some cards than others, so we can't assemble as many sets as you might think. These cards are uncommon. They are difficult to date because many of the machines were in production in the 1930s and 40s, but Exhibit Supply made cards for many of them all the way up to the early 1970s. The tale end stuff generally used lighter colored cardboard backing and printing on the bricks was stamped. The older ones have separate printed labels. So, we are using that info and the aging on the brick wrappers to estimate dates. The arcade must have bought the bricks of these during different time periods. Some are the lighter backs, but not the real light ones. We'll call it circa 1960.

##MUSICGD2034 - Grateful Dead Car Window Tour Sticker/Decal - Skeleton Playing Guitar

Click the picture to see a larger more detailed image. Vintage larger 6" tall Grateful Dead sticker/decal. These are high quality art decals that were made for car windows. I peeled the cover off for the picture. They are in mint condition and can still be used. This one is from around 1990. It features a guitar playing skeleton with a corsage made from one of the character Berth's roses and lightning bolts.

These Grateful Dead stickers/decals are old tour merchandise. I found them wrapped in plastic in boxes in master cases. They came from a distributor who sold them to tour vendors. The condition is pristine and they still will work as a car decal or window/mirror sticker. We found them packed away in storage boxes dated 1992 (many are older than that) and 1995 (year Jerry Garcia died). They are high quality artist renderings of Grateful Dead themes. Back in the day, the Dead did not monitor copyrights and that sort of thing, and in fact, at one point encouraged artists to do designs. The LA times explained it well “The Grateful Dead was famously lax in enforcing it’s intellectual property rights and trademarks, allowing fans to create their own designs using the band’s expansive iconography”. Since there was no serious monitoring or much concern back then, a lot of up and coming artists got involved in designing them. This is how some of them got their starts. Some of the sticker artists who designed these stickers went on to produce official licensed works for the Grateful Dead and other famous groups. These stickers include some by now famous designers including David Opie, and others. These older stickers are very hard to find anymore.
