"Boys! Raise Giant Mushrooms In Your Cellar!"

I am fairly certain that Ray Bradbury must have seen that last ad.

1. I don't remember Donny Osmond ever looking quite that bad.

4. You'll shoot your eye out, kid!

if the picture is any indication, maybe? that adult looks a good 50 years older than the kid.

i'm certainly more concerned about the look on that kids face looking at that gun, though.

1. I'm surprised to see Gary Glitter and Sweet on there. Never really expected them to be featured along Donny and the Jacksons.

5. I just keep thinking "magic mushrooms" haha

I glanced quickly at the first ad and did a double take, as Kevin Keegan looks a lot like Dr. Frankenfurter from Rocky Horror.

Gary Glitter! Gary Glitter for cryin' out loud! I mean all my friends were being left for Donny Osmond or David Cassidy; I could have come to terms with that given time, but Gary, oooooh...she wanted to touch him there, yeeaah...

They have to put the names on the badges because otherwise nobody would guess who they were supposed to be. Why are there six people on the Jackson Five badge? Who's the little guy at the back trying to sneak into the picture unnoticed?

*squints* Maybe it's Janet sneaking into the picture?
