4036ArticlemickyarberWe always had pretty good assemblies in elementary school here. My personal favorite was the yearly magic show featuring local magician Dave Vaught. He came once a year and put on a show for the whole school, and would spend time throughout the day visiting each class room to perform an additional trick and answering questions about magic, and explaining how important things like Math were to his tricks. My second favorite was the assembly we would have on the last day of school before Christmas break. They would put all the students on the bleachers in the gym, and roll in 5 televisions spaced out across the floor and show a movie. One year was Ernest Goes to Camp, and another year we watched Ernest Saves Christmas. I also remember watching The Boy Who Could Fly one year as well. Another fantastic article my friend. Aug 04, 2017View
4183ArticlemickyarberI am currently undergoing a similar project, but not just with action figures. A lot of old stuff like action figures, Hot Wheels, trading cards, and other things are slowly being currated for our retro museum here.Action Figure Reclamation Project Phase 1Oct 27, 2017View
4197ArticlemickyarberAhhh....getting to read your take on these cards makes sending them to you more than worth it. Thanks for the article. I loved buying packs of cards as a kid, but the unfortunate thing was, when my old man would buy me a pack, it would be so long when he would do it again, I rarely had the chance to get the same cards again. So I ended up with one pack from about 20 different lines through the years. Not much of a chance to collect any one particular thing. These days, I continue to search out unopened packs of EVERYTHING, and have quite a large collection that stands as a time capsule of trading cards. I have roughly 150 different series of unopened packs, and there are a lot more out there to find.Trading Card TreasuresNov 07, 2017View
4222ArticlemickyarberIt's weird that I don't remember ANY of these cartoons. Before I got cable, we would watch reruns of The Three Stooges and the Little Rascals on a local channel before church. Once I got cable, it USA's Cartoon Express on Sunday mornings. With cartoons like Dyno Mutt, Space Ghost, Honk Kong Phooey and more, it was a fun lineup. In 2000 when I got married, we got DirecTV and Boomerang, and I absolutely loved Boomer Action on SUndays. All morning long was just back to back shorts mixed up from the Superfriends, Aquaman, Sealab 2020, Thundarr, Herculoids, and more.SUNDAY Morning CartoonsDec 06, 2017View
4260ArticlemickyarberYou know I’m a big fan of the old cards, and I love reading your take on them. I just ordered a whole case of those American Gladiator cards from eBay and am anxiously awaiting their arrival!Trading Card Treasures Vol. 2Dec 30, 2017View
4289ArticlemickyarberI just love going through old magazines, and you seem to have found a real winner here my friend. I never picked up an issue to take home, but I did flip through these on the magazine rack at the grocery store since they were right beside the wrestling magazines. Don "The Dragon" Wilson was also a commentator on some of the first UFC shows. He was part of the three-man team, and his role was to tell you just how dangerous each of the moves were being used by the fighters.Retro Magazine RoundUp: Black BeltFeb 14, 2018View

4450ArticlemickyarberYeah, it was a pretty magical time for sure. I’m so glad my mother hung onto all the pictures too. I gained them in my possesion a few years ago, and have wanted to write about it ever since.Wagon Train VacationsJun 16, 2018View

1002ArticleIllustratorErikI remember I found a set of Animated Series X-Men Valentines at a Goodwill store once. Whats weird is that the cards only had picture of the characters posing, no message or hearts or anything, just a basic "To: and From:" on the back. I'm almost certain that the art was recycled from some trading card game. However, that made it easier to paste all the cards onto a board to make a sort of makeshift poster for my room.
