If you feel that the first image is looking right at us reproachfully, you're not wrong. The instructions do refer to it as an "eye joint."

Kids, today's secret word is "Deckle." When you see it flash on the screen, yell it loud. DECKLE!!

To the "friends I haven't met yet" at The Turpentine Creek Wildlife Refuge, this here is a light breakfast for a single resident.

(For real, if you haven't checked out their YouTube channel, I totally recommend it.)

If you have some string and good quality sealer on hand, that stray piece of fat at the bottom of Picture One can be fashioned into a very unusual fountain pen.

Actually the 12th printing from 1972. Spiral bound, on thickly coated heavy paper. Probably easy to wipe clean as needed during your first semester of Meat Cutter 101.

"Prepared by The National Association of Meat Purveyors... Chicago, Illinois..."

One of my first vintage finds, way back in the Nineties. I have 83 pages, but I suspect it was originally even longer and some other collage maker raided it first. :D

"Madonna Inn, Highway 101 and Madonna Road, San Luis Obispo, California. Phone 805 - 543-3000.

"Room 110 'Show Boat.' The theme was adapted to this Semi-Suite, reflecting back to the good old 'Gay Nineties.'

"Red carpeting and the abundant use of reds, pinks, and luxurious gold... velvets and flocked wallpaper... tastefully depict a flamboyant era of our history.

"The semi-suite is furnished with a king-sized bed and two twin beds."

Dated "December 24, 1976." (And they added the ellipses, not me.)

Enlarged to show detail.

Inside back covers from 1965 (l) and from 1970 (r). In the first image, the hypnotic spiral surface of the dessert yet appears earthbound, but in the second, its extraterrestrial origin is revealed at last!
