James W Posted March 4, 2009 Posted March 4, 2009 These were probably made in the early 70's. People would mount magazine cut outs on a trimmed board, cover it with shellac and hang them as wall decor. They were popular because you could use anything that struck your fancy. Man these bring back memories. Other than that, not much value in them unless you have some old bean bag chairs, a lava lamp and want to do a theme room in your house.
DR Dubois Posted March 4, 2009 Author Posted March 4, 2009 Thanx James. I didn't figure they were worth much and paid practically nothing for them, but they were just cool to have and hang in my studio! The board itself is varnished, but the printed pages are ...glued on?! No varnish over them.
James W Posted March 5, 2009 Posted March 5, 2009 Don't take me wrong, I think they are cool too!! I was in a doctors office once looking a old National Geographics from the 30's. It did not hit me how old they were until I found an add for a Graham sedan on the back page. Old adds can be very cool. I'm glad you like them enough to buy them.
