A few weeks ago, Rachel and I got the bright idea to go to a few thrift stores to find some new-to-her furnishings for her new apartment. So at our last stop I found a box that said, “Giant House of Cards.” It looked cool so I bought it for 54ยข. Turns out it is a reprint of a set designed by Charles Eames. It was made by Neenah Paper, one of my favorite paper companies that I can’t afford to buy paper from. Also, turns out that Stephen’s dad played with a set just like it when he was a kid.

rock! that’s even better than the “pel-freez rabbit meat” puzzle that i found in Ought One.
I think I would have fun playing with that.
Hey, stop looking at me like that.
No, really, I mean it.
STOP!
unbelievable. a whole set of eames cards? we drooled when we got one stinkin’ card from them at HOW. lucky…
54 cents! Nice find! These run for $50 retail! I was lucky enough to win one at a Neenah paper event, I was the only person willing to participate so I received this as a gift.
