My office is a mess. Usually anyway. This afternoon I reached a moment when continuing, without taking measures to mitigate the clutter, was not an option. A 6 X 6 inch area is not enough space to move a mouse around. An intervention was required!
In the process of cleaning up, I found a few things that I did not know I had! One of them was this interesting version of WDW-0030 that was used by a company (Alliance Wholesalers) to advertise an event at the Ohio National Guard Armory n 1981. I actually have three different versions of this advertising card…and they all say something a little different on the back. Apparently the company was offering a raffle for a free trip to Walt Disney World at the event.
I wonder how often this sort of thing occurred and how it was actually done? I suspect the cards were purchased separately at the park and then run through a printer to have the extra text put on them. But I suppose there is a chance that they were printed this way from the start by the card manufacturer (seems unlikely though). Either way, this reminds me of the pressed penny card I blogged on some time back.
If you have seen other cards used this way…let me know. I would be happy to share them with everyone.
Until next time…
P.S. I have integrated all of my blogs onto a Facebook page that can be accessed at Sundry Collectibles on Facebook. If you use that site a lot…”like” me there and you won’t miss any posts!
