This is from "Pif Gadget" which was a famous French comics magazine.
The double page is entitled : "The best of Adam Bomb jokes".
This magazine was dedicated to kids so the jokes are pretty cheesy...
Here comes a translation of the second story : "A man went downstairs to his basement. He saw a ghost and told him : - Hey, ghost, you're losing your handkerchief ! - This is not my handkerchief, this is my little brother !"

Wow... these boxes bring back so much memories... I think the last box you posted isn't from France : the price (15 FB = 15 francs belges) seems to show it's from Belgium. Thanks for the info, Pepe! I was wondering why the price on the box says "15 F.B." but the price on the French wrapper is "2,50 F". Do you remember what the sticker looked like that they put on the boxes in France? Maybe a "2,50 F" sticker, or did they leave it blank and I just have the boxes switched? Thanks! :-) You still miss the French first series box; the 2 boxes you have are from the Belgian release. The box with the blank price is still a Belgian box without the price tag. The French box has the price printed in the circle.

The French box has the price printed in the circle. Gotcha. Do you have a picture of the French box by chance? So does that mean both the Belgian (15 F.B) and Belgian (blank price circle) boxes contained the packs with the black price circle? Or are there some Crados packs that have the "15 F.B." sticker over the black circle?

I am not sure the black circle is from the Belgian release. I thought it was a pack given for free, but I may be wrong.

I decided to contact my friend from Belgium that originally sold me the black price circle Crados wrapper. I sent him my pic with the 3 Crados boxes/3 wrappers, and here's his response: Hallo i'ame think box 1 is the Belgium edition becose its mark 15 F.B. these is FRANK BELGIE , whit packet 2 is the Belgium edition the France edition is mark 2.50 F greetings Can anyone else confirm this? In case it's unclear, he's saying the wrapper in the middle with the black price circle is the Belgium edition (see pic above). Thanks!

I know when comparing the France/Belgium Les Crados series 1 pack variation that the Belgium packs have the price circle completely black and the France packs are white with a price in them. The Belgium variation packs are hard to find but they are in circulation occasionally.

UKM is correct, the packs with the black circle are the Belgium packs 100%.

I totally agree Tommy, always thought BK were so rare and out of this world foreign so this character always summed up how distantly foreign this card was.
Great find! Dam you LuCypher.

Just got back from vacation and I have some unique items to share that I found in NYC and some others that arrived while I was away. :-) I'll start off with a blue "super ball" that I found on eBay Canada just before I left. It arrived the day I came back from vacation. The color appears to be bluish-green.  For size reference:

Found these Osaka Popstar magnets and patches at a hobby shop called Forbidden Planet in Manhattan. Saw them in a giant display case among hundreds of patches just as I was leaving the store!! :-)

Great thread, nice collection! Do you know if there is a Jay decay card for the bootleg Uruguayan series? If so, I guess I have one more thing to add to my needs list! Thanks jasondecay!! :-) So kblaze figured out that the GPK portion of this set consists of the front and back art characters for OS9. I checked all the back art for OS9 and didn't see Jay Decay. (One less variation to worry about!) However, Ray Decay is up there, along with Bernie Berns, Drew Blood, Sloshed Josh, Swollen Sue Ellen, Mona Loser, Lee Tree, Bloodshot Scott, Adam Bomb, Dollar Bill, Hector Collector, One Eyed Jack, Rob Slob, Radar Ray, Air Head Jed, Brainy Janie, Burt Cage, Thin Lynn, Cracked Craig, and Spittin' Spencer. These are the characters used for the back art for OS9. I've seen many of them used in the set so far, but I don't have a complete set to ascertain each and every character listed above as being used for Garbage Mania. I recently completed the 5 Garbage Mania pack/wrapper variations:  This just arrived from Uruguay on my lunch break. Another Garbage Mania pack to add to the collection. This one appears to be a "production error" as it is red/white in color unlike all the other packs. Bootleg AF but still pretty cool imo :-) Front/Back 🇺🇾

Picked up a new BK as a bday present to myself :-) Japan Bukimi Kun #94 (Janet Planet/Spacey Stacy) (# is hard to see due to black numbering on black background)  I found Janet's Chinese cousin Stacey ;-) 🇯🇵 🇨🇳  I gotta admit the Chinese version looks just as slick as the BK ;-) Still looking for Janet's Israeli twin if anybody has an extra!

Janet Planet has to be one of the coolest BKs. The Chinese version is pretty sweet too.

Just got back from Phish tour and met a new friend. He seemed very cool at first, a little spaced out, eyes dialated, but overall tolerable. I let him stay the weekend since he said he'd been couch-surfing for the last 6 months, but now my home smells like patchouli, I'm getting sick of his 3 dogs running around, and all he wants to do all day is play the guitar and have me play the bongo drums. It's driving me crazy! He said his name is Skip, but he told me his name in the underground "scene" is Blake. Here's a pic, you may know him.......  ✌🏼

Throw the bum out. Freeloading since 1986...possibly even the 60s.

I saw him at Phish in Lake Tahoe a few years back, drinking free drinks in the casino.
