Halloween Safety 1977 & 1985 / 31 Years of Halloween Commercials / Sexy Vintage Pics

Big apologies for my complete failure to keep this updated--this has been the busiest Halloween I've ever experienced in terms of movie and freelance work, so I've just had no time.

But here's a very cool safety video from 1977--look, kids trick or treating at NIGHT! Crazy. (I get a little cranky at kids who trick or treat at 5:30pm...some of us eat dinner, ya know? :) )



And here's one from 1985. I'd like to put all these safety videos together in one video and color correct them. Mebbe I'll do that someday...



This one's also a reminder to me because I want to watch them all tonight--31 years of awesome Halloween commercials!

And here's some cool Betty Grable(or possibly Anne Nagle?) Halloween publicity photos from way back that maybe you haven't seen.


Anyway, gotta go hand out candy to trick or treaters, and then head out to a party.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
(Never enough days!)

Halloween Cookies / Monster Silly Putty / Skeleton House / Brachs Candy Banner / M & M Lights

I know--eleven days into Halloween and I'm only just now posting? 

Been busy working on the movie, so it's consuming all my time, but I'll see how many of these I can get up this month...

Here's a cool Halloween cookie box from the 80's(I think). Front and back, and it includes a hologram pumpkin. Cutting edge technology, ya know?

I really wanna know what the cookies looked like...





Next up in some monster silly putty. I had the Dracula silly putty when I was young, which means these are definitely 1970-something.
What's this? A scene from some unknown Harryhausen movie?

Nope, somebody with some cool Halloween decorations. No idea who.

This is a cool, VERY long banner. Here's the whole thing, then the close up of the repeating pattern.


Lastly are these M&M Halloween lights. I don't see a lot of demand for these, which is probably why this is the only picture I've ever found of them.

Still, kind of neat.



Lastly, here's some cool Halloween screensavers and images you an download.
