I Vant You!
Hellooo, my monster lovers–Happy Valentine’s Day! For this very special romantic day, I thought to share with you Topp’s 1966 “Frankenstein’s Valentine Stickers” (which sold in a box set for an astounding 5 cents–can you imagine anything costing 5 cents today lol?). These treats weren’t just stickers though, they were trading cards too! Painted by Norman Sanders, the trading box featured a myriad of Universal monsters just lookin’ for luv. Their images were paired with creative, quirky, and sometimes downright creepy phrases like Dracula saying “You’re Just my Type” or the Mummy professing, “I’m All Wrapped Up In You”. What’s your favorite trading card?
