Monster Magic Action

    I have'em but I still can't believe'em! Wow, these things are nuts. From the 60's some time after 1963, maybe mid 60's? There is about 24 monster cards. I don't have them all so I can't say for sure. Having to place the plastic lenticular lens over each of the cards separately to watch the monsters blast, shake or eat the little people is so weird. Seeing the cards without the lens and movement is even weirder due to the areas that are supposed to be in motion and it's as if someone had rubbed out the color  in spots.  

     A copy of a display sign where you bought the cards and lenses separately I am going to assume. Sometime before 1963, before the 8-card pack above for 39 cents and before the variety 4-card pack below for 10 cents. In 1963  the company traded hands from Abby Finishing Corp in Brooklyn NY, to Knight Toy & Novelty in Freeport NY which was headed by a Bill Falk.

 

Cosmic Creatures - They Need You

     Every now and then I like to sculpt things. I had some gold and silver metallic Sculpty sitting around for years and the color reminded me of these 2 inch plastic figures I used to get out of Shreddies cereal (made by Nabisco......which used to be National Biscuit Company)  in the seventies. So I thought of making some blobby creatures with my minimal skill level. Six is all I got done. They sat hidden away for a couple years until I made a box package to put them in.

 

     This is a box package I made for them that I designed and silk screened myself in 2008. Each box contains one original figure and a whole set of six 'trading' cards of all the Cosmic Creatures with their powers. There are six of these packages that each have one original sculpted figure. There are no reproductions. I have 3 out of the 6 to sell. Or I could sell you a empty box or I could sell you a set of the trading cards because I printed a lot more of those.
