Sunripe Railway Centenary Series of Tobacco Cards

In 1925, Spinet House of London and Sunripe Cigarettes produced a series of 50 train cards commemorating 100 years of trains. The tobacco cards include 50 individual photos documenting the centenary evolution of trains as well as dignitaries of the time. The cards are numbered with descriptions on the backs of the cards. This collection advertises Sunripe’s “extra size” cigarettes that were sold with or without cork tips.

A collection of 43 of the 50 vintage cards is for sale here.

Festus Haggen Quotes

Festus Haggen was a whimsical character on the Gunsmoke TV series that aired between 1955 and 1975. Festus was beloved and yet was ornery, cantankerous, stubborn, and mischievous. Though he was illiterate, he often quoted the Bible, spouted his own kind of wisdom, and sometimes misquoted classic orators. Festus appeared ignorant, but a closer look at his sayings reveals a considerable native intelligence.

Festus was so loved by his Gunsmoke audience that his sayings live on 50 years later.

Here are a few favorite Festus Haggen quotes.

Vintage Halloween Post Card Images

Deltiology is the hobby of collecting post cards, ephemera and postal history. I just love the look of vintage post cards. The artwork is so colorful and unique.

Vintage Halloween post cards have even more flair. They can be childlike with cute little veggie people and chubby toddlers. Or they can be more mystical and even macabre.

Here is a collection of products that pay tribute to the artistic appeal of Halloween vintage post cards.

A Little Pickleball Humor

The sport of pickleball is all about community. And there’s lots of humor in that community because pickleball is a fun and addictive sport. The pickleball specific lingo lends itself to puns and funny sayings. Just take the word “dink”! Players like to keep their opponents guessing about whether they are going to hit the soft dink shot.
