They Came In Peace?
Hello hello and hello! After far too long of a break I am finally back with a new post. Time just always has that way of slipping on by. Things have been cooking though, so I have the beginnings of a new collection to share.
I have always been fascinated by the old "Mars Attacks!" cards that came out in 1962. I know my father told me about them when I was young, but I can't remember what prompted the telling. Either I had heard about them and asked or he mentioned them and then had to explain the reference, most likely the latter. Either way, I had been interested in them partly because they were something that sounded so cool but were far enough in the past that I would probably never catch a glimpse of them. Fast forward 30 or so years and thanks to the intertubes of the net here, every card is available for drooling over. I first looked them up years ago, then promptly forgot about them. I wasn't into collecting much, I didn't have any disposable income (I still can't say much for that, but I have learned to manage it better, heh), so I didn't dwell on the cards.
