I really don’t believe in luck, but if I did I’d say this was one lucky find. It came to me by way of reader and fellow blogger, Jo of Joyatri. She had seen my post about a KEK album I’d found, and emailed me to let me know she had this one.
She then sent photos, and I was so happy to see that it is in what is probably a print from the early 1960s. I already had two items from this print, but in a different colorway. This time we can see the entire print, including lots of graphic that are not on my other, smaller items.
I had always assumed that the hitchhiker in the left corner was a girl!
Cute jaywalking kitty-cat!
The suitcase strapped onto the side of the bottom car reads “Roma”. I’d be smiling too if I were headed for Rome!
According to research done by friend Nathalie, KEK was a German maker of albums and such. They might still be in business, but I can’t imagine that anything made by them today could possibly be this cool.
