Heh. I recobanize two of the book covers (Nos. 1 & 6) and there are more at the original source (NSFK).  Why did I post them here? Because I found them amusing and mildly offensive. Smiling at blasphemy is always a part of a Big Little Golden Book Edition of The Overnight Open Thread.

Wow! What a Shine!

“Oooh, my face looks like a hamster in the side of THIS pan!
Thank you, Prozac!”

From the amazing Plan59 comes this classic illustration, but I have a couple of problems with it. What bonehead decided to put a lamp post right next to the garage, and why is the car parked sideways in the driveway? And another thing –  she’s over 6 feet tall and her kitchen is being consumed by a mysterious white fungus.

Just one more example of the average American drug-addled lifestyle of the late ’50s, buffed and shined for The Overnight Open Thread.
