Although I’ve posted many examples of children’s card games, I’d never seen an ad for them before. The games, with their liminal designs and cheap prices, seem to stay on the lowest rung of commerce, too forgettable and disposable to be marketed. This ad, though, gets into the spirit of things with its clumsy artwork, bland design, and blurry printing. Who could ask for more? It comes from a comic book: Daffy Duck, December 1977, published by Gold Key.
