Ephemera: Christmas Card

An obvious Christmas combo?

I wish I remembered where I found this fantastic card, but I don't. Sorry. It could have been here.

Christmas Comics: Wonder Woman Steals From Children!

Who ever thought that Wonder Woman and the Justice League (geeky correction: "Society", see comments...) would steal Christmas presents from a sleeping child on Christmas Eve?! Well, here's the proof:

And they are smiling too!!

A Christmas Yuleblog: "In addition to collecting Christmas music, I have collected nearly 1000 vintage Christmas ads over the years. Many of these include celebrities, radio, television, cigarettes, liquor, modern appliances, and the like."

A taste of what you can expect.

Christmas Music: Santaism

Following the yule tradition that I've created for this blog I've put the annual Martin Klasch Christmas music mix together once again. There are 27 songs in this year's compilation but I'm not going to reveal which ones or by whom they are performed. I will say that if you've heard my other Christmas mixes you'll feel familiar with the style of the mix. If this interests you at all all you have to do is click the image of the cover and you'll end up at zSHARE where you'll be able to download the rar-file (130 MB). And just to annoy you I put a password on it - so to unpack the files you have type the name of this blog (without space).

I hope you'll enjoy it!
Sorry. No longer available.

PS. If anyone wondered: If I find the time and energy I might repost the mixes from earlier years. We'll see.
