SETSMAS ALL YEAR ROUND - Day 7: Happy Twin Peaks Day

I'm gonna post all these scans if it kills me.

Hi there! On February 24th a hundred years ago Special Agent Dale Cooper did A Thing and we got a couple dozen episodes of weird-ass soap opera horror television, a weirder-ass movie and yet another remake/reboot/sequel of  25 year old property (pending). If you wanted to watch the series starting on this fateful day, you're outta luck because I procrastinated and didn't post this till way late. You still got time to read along with Ball Four though. Here's the box set produced by Star Pics in 1991 to cash in on Peaker Mania. Between the bizarre log bordered front design and the incredibly busy backs that look like they were created in Word Perfect 5.1 for Windows, this might be the most early-90s trading card set ever. Look for the bonus autograph card at the end!


 WARRIORS... COME OUT AND PLAAAAAAAAAYYYYY

I'm 97.8% sure I also have the Miguel Ferrer (RIP) autograph from this set but I can't find it anywhere which means it will literally leap out of a box and smack me in the eye the moment I click on 'Publish'.

I'll try to post another set before May but first I'm going to have some damn fine coffee and a big slice of cherry pie.

HEY GUYS THAT WAS A REFERENCE DIDJA GET IT EH WELL DIDJA

Totally flashing back to the early 90's. I got this set as soon as it came out. Don't have any of the autos though. Writing this right before I go to bed so there will probably be a little person talking slowly in a slurred voice in my dreams tonight, or maybe Bob will make an appearance. Darn it.

Hello there, You have performed an excellent job.

I will certainly digg it and in my view recommend to my
friends. I'm confident they'll be benefited from this site.
