The “Space Age Edition” of Old Maid was published by the Russell Manufacturing Company in 1960.  Most of its pairs are, like this one, cartoon versions of NASA spacecraft.  However, the UN building, Albert Einstein, and a skin diver are also part of the roster.  I guess they help keep the kids on their toes.

And here’s the Old Maid herself.

    she’s ready to go with a blast between the legs and a shoe already half off. Her eyes are rolling around in her head, and she’s revving up for “Mr. Loonie”.
