It's so cool to be uncool (Part 213)...

What's Cool?

You think you're cool?  Well you'll never be as cool as this ad page from a late 70's comic book!


Yep, as a lil prepubescent Polt, I saved up my allowance and actually ordered two things from an ad like this.  I got the X-Ray Specs (similar, I think, to the Secret Spy Scope right above the order form) and machine to convert paper into money!  Don't now how much they each cost back then, but I assure you, they were NOT worth what I paid.  Nor were they anything like what I thought they'd be.

yep, I learned early about PT Barnum's saying, "A sucker born every minute."
