Friday Night Wrestling



I have four vintage wrestlers from Minkey’s Rubber Stamps that were a very generous gift from a friend.  The page is from the Rubber Stamp Album by Joni K. Miller & Lowry Thompson, 1978.  I would be thrilled to have Mr. Wrestling, Doctor X or any other wrestlers from this line, but probably a rare find.  If anyone ever sees one for sale or has them for sale, please let me know.

Error Cards


Worked on error/test cards this morning.  It’s a fun challenge to bring ruined cards back to life.  I might even start to send these out as mail art.  I also added a few stickers.  Some years ago, we went to an estate sale at the home of a wealthy woman who had a massive craft room and she had multiples of everything.  I purchased hundreds of Mrs. Grossman stickers which I once bought as a kid for my scrapbooks.  Some of you might remember the rolls of stickers at stationery stores.

Kid’s Stamps

These are cheap, kid’s rubber stamps from the 1960s/70s.  They came in a blister pack and probably sold at dime stores.  I didn’t think they would stamp because they are rock hard, but with a juicy ink pad and some hard pressing, they made a good impression. Perhaps I will use them for borders or decorating envelopes although I don’t see using them too often.  I did manage to make one postcard with one of the images.
