Putting this together was very therapeutic for me, so for anyone who might be struggling, go do something creative. It truly does help! </p><p style="text-align: left;">Most of the images I used are ones that I've shared before back when I used to do the Halloween countdown. Watching these images flicker throughout the video brings back memories of spending so much time scanning and editing them. All of the "found photos" are ones that I rescued from antique shops or auctions. Many images are scans of comics or magazine ads that I've manipulated through photoshop. There are even some of my own photographs and artwork sprinkled in. The fantastic song comes from one of the best Halloween albums ever produced and that's Halloween by Wonderland Golden Records. I have a beat-up copy with just the right amount of hisses and pops. The song was performed by Kay Lande and arranged by Wade Denning. </p><p style="text-align: left;"></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-RH3UMAZHUf0/X5M5l6eNu3I/AAAAAAAAY-I/DVfSL4wHk-07RljX_PlYOJkZ5Er03hCXwCLcBGAsYHQ/s965/Halloween%2BRecord.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="965" data-original-width="958" height="320" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-RH3UMAZHUf0/X5M5l6eNu3I/AAAAAAAAY-I/DVfSL4wHk-07RljX_PlYOJkZ5Er03hCXwCLcBGAsYHQ/s320/Halloween%2BRecord.jpg" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-C7Bj3Y1xyJk/X5M565RoOuI/AAAAAAAAY-Q/MXChadzP5fgZ4xUcDlYQU7-gpjNfv_gbwCLcBGAsYHQ/s640/Halloween%2BWitch%2BMask.gif" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="400" data-original-width="640" height="250" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-C7Bj3Y1xyJk/X5M565RoOuI/AAAAAAAAY-Q/MXChadzP5fgZ4xUcDlYQU7-gpjNfv_gbwCLcBGAsYHQ/w400-h250/Halloween%2BWitch%2BMask.gif" width="400" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Happy Halloween!</div><br /> <p></p>Todd Franklinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16400377734350011046noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24914557.post-29216127422940885092020-04-14T18:36:00.002-05:002020-04-14T18:36:59.185-05:001970's FILMSTRIP: SQUEEGEE LEARNS ABOUT DRUGS BY MARY LOU ANDERSON <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Ah, the memories of filmstrips. Any school kid from the 1960's to the early 1980's will remember sitting in a dark classroom watching a continuous slow scroll of images. The images were paired with mono audio and those famous beep tones. The beep signaled the teacher to advance the strip to the next image. If you were a lucky kid or a teacher's pet you might've been chosen for this highly important and crucial job. Today, I present an opportunity for you to go back in time and experience one of these classic filmstrips complete with beeps. This is Squeegee Learns About Drugs from 1971.</div>

So do you feel all nostalgic now? Did it take you back to those old school day memories? This is definitely a product of its time and is quickly becoming a forgotten type of media. Can you imagine children sitting still and watching all 13 minutes and 23 seconds of this? </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Now I want to mention a little bit about Mary Lou Anderson, the creator of this filmstrip. She's a Kansas City personality that has been entertaining and teaching children through the use of her puppets for fifty years plus. She created Squeegee and the other puppets for the filmstrip. How'd you like Smartypants? Even though he doesn't wear pants he's the cool one made from a toilet brush! Mary performed as a puppeteer and as a main character for Channel 41 KMBA's two kid shows. 41 Treehouse Lane and Mother Nature were on the air from the 1970's until the early 1980's. I didn't grow up in KC, so I wasn't familiar with Mary Lou Anderson but since finding this filmstrip, I've found some online info about her.</div>

One last item connected to Mary is this great 1974 newspaper ad for Winchell's Donut House. Mary as her character Mother Nature was a judge for the donut eating contest. Now that would have made a great filmstrip!<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
Oops, I almost forgot. Did you notice the stack of books that Squeegee is next to in the filmstrip? If you're like me, you were probably straining your eyes trying to figure out the titles. No worries because I figured it out. </div>

<br /></div>
<i>In the year, 1994. From out of space, comes a runaway planet, hurtling between the Earth and the moon, unleashing cosmic destruction. Man's civilization is cast in ruin. Two thousand years later, Earth is reborn. A strange new world rises from the old. A world of savagery, super-science, and sorcery. But one man bursts his bonds to fight for justice. With his companions, Ookla the Mok and Princess Ariel, he pits his strength, his courage, and his fabulous Sunsword, against the forces of evil. He is Thundarr the Barbarian!</i><br />
<br />
Let the Thundarr gang distract you from our current world with this complete scan and printable coloring book from 1982. Thundarr was my favorite Saturday morning cartoon as a kid and thru the years, I've put together a small collection of stuff. So the other day, I dug out the coloring book and posted the cover to <a href="https://twitter.com/NeatoCoolville" target="_blank">twitter</a>. After many requests to see inside, I went ahead and scanned all the pages to share it here, just like old times. Ignite your Sunsword or crayons and go enjoy some coloring pages! Oh...and if you decide to share any of your coloring creations, post 'em to twitter and tag 'em #thundarrcoloringbook. Let's turn twitter into a giant fridge graced by the goodness of Thundarr! Lords of Light, it will be glorious!!<br />
<br />
For best results click on the page and save the image to your computer and print from there.<br />

Wow! I haven't walked the streets of Neato Coolville for a long time and apparently, things have fallen into disrepair. Recently I got a notice from Google that my blog had way too many broken links. Whew! They were right. I finally finished going through all my old posts and fixed most of the links. It's a bummer that so many websites and blogs have gone extinct. No bones, no fossils and without a trace. Just completely deleted and wiped off the internet. Sad.<br />
<br />
This blog might be in a state of inactivity but I hope to keep it intact as long as possible. Nowadays I mainly post on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/neatocoolville/" target="_blank">Instagram</a> but I've been toying with the idea to breath new life into this blog.Todd Franklinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16400377734350011046noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24914557.post-14334744224065292142019-06-25T00:04:00.000-05:002019-06-25T00:04:02.448-05:00REMEMBER TO ALWAYS BE NEATO COOL TO EVERYONE<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

A couple of weeks ago, I found this great <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forrest_J_Ackerman" target="_blank">Forry Ackerman</a> photo that I'd never seen before. It was originally part of an article on nostalgia in the December 28, 1970 issue. I posted it on <a href="https://twitter.com/NeatoCoolville?lang=en" target="_blank">Twitter</a> and had a request to post the complete article. Now you can see what your parents or grandparents were nostalgic about. This article is still relevant to any generation. Just switch out the pop culture nostalgia with your own era's pop nostalgia and then it will apply to you. Be sure to read the last page. The author, Disney historian <a href="http://variety.com/2015/film/people-news/john-culhane-disney-animation-historian-dies-at-81-1201555529/" target="_blank">John Culhane</a>, could have easily been talking about today. (Btw, I want to go back in time and visit that End of An Era store in San Francisco and buy some props from the famous MGM prop auction!)</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
It's still hard to believe Carrie Fisher is gone. Really, I'm not too keen on writing these RIP tributes because they make me sad. But as a fan, I thought I would share some of my thoughts. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Thanks to that space fantasy movie she starred in back in '77, Carrie became a true icon of my generation. Someone posted a pic of Carrie Fisher, Mark Hamill, and Harrison Ford and titled it, "Our Beatles." I never thought of it that way, but yes that's sort of true. It was all things Star Wars for us, the first generation of fans. Our love of Star Wars inspired many of us to follow the careers of these actors and filmmakers.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I was no different and kept up with the "Star Wars people" through magazine articles, TV interviews and of course their non-SW work. I only watched Hollywood Vice Squad because Carrie was in it. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Seeing Carrie show up in movies and TV was fun, but the real treat was seeing her in interviews. The real Carrie Fisher with the quick wit and sharp tongue was so much more entertaining than any character she portrayed. She was brutally truthful and seemed to have no fear when sharing stories of past experiences. She helped a lot of people coping with mental issues and addiction problems by sharing her own struggles. She was truly a one-of-a-kind and will be missed in many different ways. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Back in the early 90's, I sent a fan letter to Carrie requesting an autograph. This is what came back to me and it always makes me chuckle each time I look at it. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-M1rNdgvghiw/WGfjNjXjG4I/AAAAAAAAWPQ/YDafvL-UwHYxumGgsf1QDaBP2C5RmdkxgCLcB/s1600/1993%2BCarrie%2BFisher%2BAutograph%2Bto%2BTodd%2BFranklin.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="245" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-M1rNdgvghiw/WGfjNjXjG4I/AAAAAAAAWPQ/YDafvL-UwHYxumGgsf1QDaBP2C5RmdkxgCLcB/s400/1993%2BCarrie%2BFisher%2BAutograph%2Bto%2BTodd%2BFranklin.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
As you can see, she joked that she was signing an autograph for her brother, Todd Fisher. It was erased but originally Todd F. was penciled on the bottom corner. I'm guessing the assistant who prepared the autograph request jotted down my name for her to personalize. History sort of repeated when I finally met her for the first time in 2006. </div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-GYInHjzt5hc/WGfjNg5VOdI/AAAAAAAAWPU/SOKcKLkHU98TJYEoDhjgNVhyvoz_Ho69QCLcB/s1600/2006%2BSDCC%2BMeeting%2BCarrie%2BFisher.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-GYInHjzt5hc/WGfjNg5VOdI/AAAAAAAAWPU/SOKcKLkHU98TJYEoDhjgNVhyvoz_Ho69QCLcB/s400/2006%2BSDCC%2BMeeting%2BCarrie%2BFisher.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
It was a big thrill at the San Diego Comic convention to finally meet Carrie Fisher. She had a long line of fans and of course, I was one of them. I had to write my first name on a post-it note on the photo I picked out for her to sign. A common thing to speed up the line and make it easier for guests signing autographs. She started to sign my photo before I stepped in front of her table. When she looked up, she joked, "I thought I was signing an autograph for my brother, but you're not my brother. Are you?" I can't remember what else she said but she had us laughing and left us feeling a bit starstruck.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-5KT-fR_EsZw/WGfkfpb681I/AAAAAAAAWPY/goycwjmf3YU-MqqJVlEKdc1Sopi-kbpYgCLcB/s1600/04day2carrie04.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-5KT-fR_EsZw/WGfkfpb681I/AAAAAAAAWPY/goycwjmf3YU-MqqJVlEKdc1Sopi-kbpYgCLcB/s400/04day2carrie04.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
It's always sad when anyone passes away with years left on the table. She definitely squeezed a lot of life in the years she was here and shared most of that life with the world.<br />
<br />
I close with a pic of my well-played-with Princess Leia action figure from childhood. The condition of this figure tells how much I adored the character she played and eventually the real person. My condolences to the family (and all fans) for the loss of Carrie and her mother.<br />

Neato Coolville might've missed the Halloween countdown but our pal Vlad was working feverishly to bring to life some new episodes of Castle Vlad. As a Halloween treat...or trick, (you be the judge), here are all the October episodes in one place. Let's start with the annual Halloween outtakes first!</div>

Wow! Now that was neato cool!!! I've been wanting to see this "lost" commercial forever and I'm thrilled for the opportunity to share this amazing artifact relating to TV, "kids food" and monsters. Anyone remember seeing this when it first aired in 1974? Of course, I remember taking my Monster Vitamins every morning with breakfast, but unfortunately I have no memory of this commercial.<br />
<br />
<br />
I've blogged about Monster Vitamins a few times before and hoped the TV commercial would eventually surface. Thanks to Clio award winning art director <a href="http://www.warrengodfreyart.com/Gallery/Welcome.html" target="_blank">Warren Godfrey</a>, my wish finally came true. In Warren's archives, he found an U-matic tape featuring a collection of his commercials including the Monster Vitamins commercial. I can't thank Warren enough for his time and generosity for sharing the MV commercial with all of us!

One last thing, as there seems to always be something else hiding in the shadows related to Monster Vitamins. The animation cel below is from my collection and a handful of these surfaced several years ago.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
I'd always assumed this was the animated sequence from the Vincent Price commercial. Now after finally watching the VP commercial I now know that this animation sequence is...zoinks...from another commercial. Okay neato readers, let's go and find this second "lost" Monster Vitamins commercial!!<br />

Today marks the 50th anniversary of everyone's favorite TV space western! Actually, it was two days ago on September 6th that truly marked the 50th because Star Trek aired first on Canadian television. Above is an ad that ran in the Edmonton Journal newspaper on September 6, 1966, for CFRN Channel 3 TV and it aired that evening at 7:30 p.m. Viewers had a choice of <a href="https://youtu.be/abtBjHVAe08" target="_blank">Let's Sing Out</a>, a rerun of <a href="https://youtu.be/6EL4OjCtIFk" target="_blank">Glynis</a> or Star Trek. I suspect some of the first Trekkies in the world were born that night in Canada. </div>

In the United States, Star Trek was shown as part of NBC's sneak previews night on September 8, 1966, beginning with the episode, <a href="https://youtu.be/lMJ5SdGBxGM" target="_blank">The Man Trap</a>. The ad above is from the Sept. 3-9, 1966 issue of TV Guide. Understandably not realizing the cultural impact that Trek would have; TV Guide put Eva Gabor on their <a href="http://www.tvguidemagazine.com/archive/suboffer/1960s/1966/19660903_c1.jpg.html" target="_blank">cover</a>. Apparently, the folks at TV Magazine, a supplement for the St. Louis Post-Dispatch had a good idea of the importance of the show and featured Captain Kirk on their cover.<br />

Trekkie, Trekker or Trek-hater; I'm sure all of us can remember our own introduction to Star Trek. I wasn't around for the original broadcasts and discovered Trek thru reruns in the 70's. My dad, brother and I watched the show most Saturday nights on KRCG-13 out of Jefferson City, MO. I don't think I ever saw a complete episode as I could never stay awake. I did much better once it aired in the afternoon after school. </div>

KENNY BAKER: THE TRUE HEART OF R2-D2<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-OPXZstatfos/V7IdDP7mHTI/AAAAAAAAWMQ/XMcNJQkIQ5EENXHgMA0H8qAGIDIEfzfjwCLcB/s1600/RIP%2BKenny%2BBaker.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="283" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-OPXZstatfos/V7IdDP7mHTI/AAAAAAAAWMQ/XMcNJQkIQ5EENXHgMA0H8qAGIDIEfzfjwCLcB/s400/RIP%2BKenny%2BBaker.jpg" width="550" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I just had to photoshop together this simple tribute.</div>
<br />
It was sad to hear the recent news that Kenny Baker had passed away. Of course, it was a collaborative group of talented people that helped bring R2 to life, but without Baker, R2 would have been a lifeless prop. In a statement soon after Baker's passing, <a href="http://www.starwars.com/news/kenny-baker-the-actor-who-brought-r2-d2-to-life-passes-away" target="_blank">George Lucas said</a>, "Kenny was truly the heart and soul of R2-D2."<br />
<br />
Anyone who discovered Star Wars in their childhood was probably amazed to learn that someone was inside of R2. I know my mind was blown when I found out at age seven. Really? R2 is not a real robot?<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-i6mWj7WRxAY/V7IdDgWGArI/AAAAAAAAWMU/idnS7s3qnW0RehzpOVR_W9heocAmbmwRgCLcB/s1600/My%2BFirst%2BR2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-i6mWj7WRxAY/V7IdDgWGArI/AAAAAAAAWMU/idnS7s3qnW0RehzpOVR_W9heocAmbmwRgCLcB/s400/My%2BFirst%2BR2.jpg" width="305" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
My very well-worn and heavily played with R2-D2 figure from childhood.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I'm not sure when or how I learned this amazing true fact. It was probably from the back of a Topps trading card or maybe from a kid at school. Actually, I probably learned there was a person inside of R2 from this article inside <a href="http://neatocoolville.blogspot.com/2007/05/senior-weekly-reader-sept-21-1977.html" target="_blank">Weekly Reader Senior magazine</a>. One of the great things about Star Wars was all the "making of" info being published. It let us kids look behind the curtain to see how the movie was made and because of this; we sort of got to know the people involved with the movie. I suppose this is why it's a bit more sad to lose a person associated with one of your favorite things, even though you don't have a personal relationship with them. </div>

I had the pleasure of meeting Kenny Baker at a comic convention back in the late 90's or early 2000's. (Sad I can't remember the exact year.) He was the first actor I met associated with Star Wars and it was a thrill to meet him in person.</div>

It's hard to believe one of my favorite all-time movies hit theaters 25 years ago today. Some people have comfort foods; I have comfort movies and The Rocketeer is one of them. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I was introduced to the story of The Rocketeer before the film was made thanks to my pal Tim, aka <a href="http://neatocoolville.blogspot.com/search/label/Castle%20Vlad" target="_blank">Vlad</a>, back in the late 1980's. He showed me this really cool comic book of a 1930's movie serial type of character and that was all it took for me to become a fan. It was also my intro into the wonderful world of artist <a href="http://www.davestevens.com/" target="_blank">Dave Stevens</a>, the creator of The Rocketeer. </div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-QVe-2KvV-bw/V2lo1KULi7I/AAAAAAAAWKk/ELkXWcKQemA3Zq01WSH1IicCje1BbQenACLcB/s1600/Dave%2BStevens%2BSigned%2BRocketeer.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-QVe-2KvV-bw/V2lo1KULi7I/AAAAAAAAWKk/ELkXWcKQemA3Zq01WSH1IicCje1BbQenACLcB/s640/Dave%2BStevens%2BSigned%2BRocketeer.jpg" width="456" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
(I had the honor of meeting Dave Stevens at the 2000 San Diego Comic Con.)</div>
<br />
As we all know, Dave's artwork was amazing! One of the best comic artists to draw the female form and the way he told a story between the panels was always exciting and exhilarating! Back when I was in college my comic lovin' pals and I were excited for the movie version of the Rocketeer to premiere. It didn't disappoint and we've been talking about the film since its release. I believe it is still one of the best film adaptations made from a comic book. If only the film could have found more success at the box office. Because of this, we were all cheated out of more Rocketeer films.<br />
<br />

<br />
I've been snooping around on YouTube looking for Rocketeer vids from back in the day and I think you'll enjoy watching these embeds. I know tonight, I have a date with the first lady of Neato Coolville and we'll be watching The Rocketeer once again, just like we did on June 21, 1991...except this time we'll be cheering on the flying hood ornament from our sofa instead of a crowded movie theater.<br />

Here's this year's card paired with the Jaxxon card I made for last year. Hmm...I wonder what non-movie Star Wars character I should create for next year's card?<br />

HAPPY EASTER!!!</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Here's something neato cool for your Easter basket today! We all have fun memories of decorating eggs and probably most of us used PAAS kits to color eggs. The other day I found an uncommon kit that was available back in 1979 and was created by <a href="http://www.currentcatalog.com/" target="_blank">Current</a>, a company that's still in business and has a neat origin going back to 1950. You can read their story <a href="http://www.currentcatalog.com/category/customer-service/about-us.do" target="_blank">here</a>.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Now check out what kids were using to dress up Easter eggs back in 1979. Enjoy! </div>

Back in the nifty-fifties, a loaf of bread came in a wax wrapper instead of a plastic bag. On the end of the wrapper was a label that helped keep the wrapper sealed. Some clever bread companies printed up fun labels for kids to collect. Sports figures to Disney characters to popular TV western stars could be found on the end of a bread loaf. Some bread companies had promotions and offered albums to save your end-label collection inside.<br />
<br />
<br />
<div>
Recently I found four Christmas themed end-labels for you to enjoy today. </div>

Earlier this year I was fortunate to find this neato cool piece of original advertising artwork. I have no clue what it was used for. My guess it was probably commissioned for a beer or soda company, maybe for a sign or a grocery store display. It's a great piece of art that was created by some one with a lot of talent. I wonder who illustrated it? Anyway, now this piece of art is ready to go as a Christmas decoration in our house.<br />

Since time got away from me this year, the annual 12 days of Christmas will mostly be shared on my twitter page <a href="https://twitter.com/NeatoCoolville" target="_blank">@NeatoCoolville</a>. This year, I photoshopped Santa hats on characters from the movies. Yeah, kinda random, kinda stupid but hopefully kinda fun. Last night I shared everyone's favorite replicant hunter, Rick Deckard wearing a Santa hat. I won't bother everyone here on the blog with these and will only be sharing the images on my twitter feed.<br />
<br />
---update---<br />
For your yuletide pleasure, here are the rest of the Santa hat wearing movie characters! <br />

Whoa! Looks like there's no slowing down Santa's reindeer because Christmas is coming on fast! Our annual 12 days of Christmas usually begins on the Dec. 14 but I don't think I'm going to make that deadline. I do have a few fun blog posts ready and a few I hope to find time to put together, but this year it might be more of an 11 or 10 or 9 days of Christmas here on the blog.<br />
<br />
I did manage to cook up 12 silly photoshopped movie images that I'll be sharing on twitter starting late Monday. You can follow me <a href="https://twitter.com/NeatoCoolville" target="_blank">@NeatoCoolville</a> if you'd like. Here's a little piece from the first photo.<br />

Just one last post before Halloween 2015 is dead and buried. First, I want to thank everyone who stopped by this month and checked out all of our Halloween posts. Thanks for the comments, likes, retweets and lurks! I hope you enjoyed it.<br />
<br />
This was the last Neato Ghoulville Halloween countdown. After ten Halloween countdowns filled with 500+ blog posts, I believe it's time to end the madness. It's been fun transforming this blog each year, but it's time to permanently bury Neato Ghoulville. Next year, I'll still post some things to celebrate the orange & black season...just not everyday.<br />
<br />
For fun, here's a look back at some Neato Ghoulville banners and creations I made for the blog during the ten countdowns. <br />
<br />
Ghoul-bye!<br />

Earlier this month I found this whimsical antique Halloween treat box and I had to resist sharing it until today. It's amazing to think that someone, probably a child at the time, saved this wonderful and fragile piece that dates back to the 1920s. This box covered in orange and black crepe paper with the grinning Jack O'Lantern on top has many mysteries. What kind of candy was inside? What Halloween memory does this box represent? How did it survive all these years? Who was the original owner? The mystery just adds to the charm of this piece. That goofy grin just tells us that Jack knows something and he's not telling anyone...ever. </div>

It's hard to believe that the Halloween countdown will soon be over. There were so many treats handed out across the world wide (spider)web. Be sure to visit the master list of countdown bloggers at the <a href="http://countdowntohalloween.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Countdown to Halloween site</a>. For fun, I've listed a small sample size of some of the posts and Halloween related things that caught my eye this spooky holiday season. Enjoy!<br />
<br />
<a href="https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/872361452/make-zombie-mouth-bubblegum-a-reality" target="_blank">Zombie Mouth Bubblegum</a> - As a candy and monster fan, it's been exciting to watch and contribute to the beginning stages of the first ever crowdsourced bubblegum. It still has a long way to go before becoming a reality and you still have a few days to join the fun and be part of confectionary history.<br />
