Thursday, December 29, 2011. The bookshelf I store my Mad magazine collection on has long been filled to capacity so until I get a new one I've had to store my more recent copies in stacks around my studio. When Tom Bunk mailed me some new sketches last month I held off on posting them on the funtime blog just to make sure which issues they were used for. I recognized a lot of them from previous issues but wanted to wait till I went through the previous months mags to identify them. I've already done som...

Sunday, February 26, 2012. GARBAGE PAIL KIDS MAGNETS 2012. The new Garbage Pail Kids magnet series has finally arrived in stores. This is the fist ever GPK all-magnet set. It includes 16 magnets (12 brand new kids) and comes with 2 gummy candies per package. The box is really neat. I usually try to buy out the last packs in a box so the store will let me take it home. I've got the boxes from most of the GPK series so far. The back of each card pack has the checklist and nutrition facts and stuff. I alway...

Wednesday, October 9, 2013. MR POTTER'S GARBAGE PAIL KIDS BNS3 SUBMISSIONS. Since the Garbage Pail Kids BNS3 trading card set is released now, I thought I'd share some of my accepted/rejected submissions. I was told by other Topps artists that sharing rejected submissions is sometimes a bad idea because there has been cases where they are put in a "maybe" file and may be pulled out down the road for future series. But, what the heck. I'll start out with the one gag that got accepted. B there hasn't reall...

Friday, January 31, 2014. TOPPS GARBAGE PAIL KIDS RETURN CARDS. Each time an artist works on a series of sketch cards, Topps also sends them 10 extra blank cards which are referred to as "Return Cards". The artist can illustrate these cards and sell them off on Ebay or to collectors. Usually these are real nice cards with higher quality art. Here are photos of the 10 return cards I did for the Garbage Pail Kids 2013 BNS3 series:. I sold all of them but one which is still listed for sale on Ebay:. So I ju...

Monday, February 6, 2012. TOPPS 1960S PART ONE (1960-1965). I collected a bunch of scans from Topps trading cards from the 1960s to the present. I figured it would be fun to post some of the wrapper and box pics. There sure are a lot, so I thought it would bee a good idea to break it up into a few posts. Here are the scans from 1960-1965 (some are poor, but they are getting older and harder to find good images of):. 1960 ANGRY STICKERS WRAPPER. 1960 FUNNY VALENTINES WRAPPER. 1961 CRAZY CARDS WRAPPER.

Sunday, August 19, 2012. GARBAGE PAIL KID KNOCK-OFF SPIDER. I look forward all week to garage sale Friday and the treasures I might find. Yesterday I hit the jackpot. My wife told me we should skip a garage sale on friday that's sign read "Crafts, Housewares, and Furniture". I decided just for the heck of it to stop by on Saturday. The sale was pretty lame as described but just as I was about to leave I saw a shoebox with some items in the back of the garage. Http:/ www.wgpkr.com/. If it has to go I want...

Thursday, March 6, 2014. MR POTTERS MARCH UPDATE. Just checking in to update everyone on my recent activities. I've been keeping busy and trying to avoid the frigid winter weather as much as possible. Once these are finished I have 200 sketch cards waiting to be illustrated for Wacky Packages Old School 5 series which is due to come out in August 2014. At my tables I plan on doing free sketch cards, displaying a complete timeline of GPK collectables, dicussing the history of GPK, and selling artwork.
