Rolinhos Pan (Brazil - 1998)
THE MYSTERIOUS MYSTERY-LIKE MYSTERY OF THE MYSTERIOUS DISEMBODIED
HAND THAT SCARED EVERYONE BECAUSE IT WAS SO DAMNED MYSTERIOUSO
See, I'm telling you, there are just so many stories waiting to be
told about the sordid and mysterious world of candy cigarettes.
Take for example this box of chocolate ciggies from Brazil (and thank you,
kind reader
"Larry H",
for sending those along - I still owe you one, yes,
I will "owe up", but not now, Larry, not NOW! I'm in the middle of something
here). Okay, little dorky kid, thumbs up, sure, that's new, kids on the
packages, perhaps he's some local TV celebrity, a knock-off of "Our Gang"
starring faux Spanky here, I don't know. I like his corn-cob teeth, perhaps
he's been enjoying way too much of the product he's shilling for,
methinks.
And here's the back of the same package. I am guessing this is the back
because all of the information is on the front and the way the package
opens up. This kid is also giving us the thumbs up,
hey, thumbs up, everyone! Thumbs up for chocolate cigarettes!
But wait a minute ... wait a minnit wait a minute here ... as Rusty from
Bigrig pointed out, those
hands looked awfully similar...
Incredibly similar. Similar enough for me to create Cardhouse's first
animated gif which I will call the FIRST
ANIMATED GIF OF THE MYSTERIOUS SIMILAR THUMBS UP CHOCOLATE CIGARETTE HAND
THING.
fig 1. first animated gif of the mysterious similar thumbs up chocolate
cigarette hand thing.
So now you know the horrible secret of the Anonymous Graphic Designer
Somewhere In Brazil Who Saved Some Time By Creating Two Hands From One Hand.
Did you notice how I just completely avoided the race card there?
