Children’s Card Games (143)

This one is more of a card game about children than for children.  Applying humorous interpretations to infants’ grimaces is a publishing staple; here all of the captions are about card-playing.  The result was used to promote a Buick dealership in Greenfield.  The world boasts many Greenfields; thanks to search engines, I can tell you this one was in Massachusetts.

    I’m quite familiar with Greenfield, MA. I don’t remember Don Lorenz Buick, though.
    That last promotional card is especially creepy.

    You can find them at donlorenz.com, if you’re curious. I don’t know if they still produce playing cards.

    the five of clubs has a big dose of schadenfreude….and someone definitely has their knickers in a knot in Greenfield.
