Hey postcard fans! A new Wacky Postcard promo and article is available in the current issue of the Wrapper magazine (#264 - January 1 through February 15)! It's a Laffy Taffy parody written by Fred Wheaton, painted by Neil Camera. I believe if you send a SASE with your request, the editor, Les Davis will mail one out to you! See thewrappermagazine.com for more details.
UPDATE: Les Davis has asked me to post the following message for people interested in purchasing the Wrapper postcard promo:
Due to the incredible response for the new Wacky Postcards from The Wrapper magazine and my time filling orders(plus Paypal fees), I must increase the cost of the (2) Wacky postcards from $1.50 to $2 via Paypal...or $3.50(from $3) for the (2) Wacky postcards plus the current Wrapper issue with the Wacky article. Also, no multiple orders or re-orders! Thanks for understanding a guy under siege(ha) and for your patience. --Les Davis, Editor, The Wrapper, thewrappermagazine.com"
-
OMG... that mag is still around? I thought the internet must have killed it by now....
-
Neil, thanks for the heads up. This is very cool, I can't wait to get one.
-
I emailed Les to get the details. Will post what he says after I get his reply.

Yes it is still around, Les has been cranking this mag. since 1978, I have been a subscriber since #91, But have had to stop for a little while due to other things that involve monetary attention. But may have to get this particular issue since it contains something Wacky related.

My issue came yesterday, but I had worked pretty late, and was too tired to read it (had I realized it included the Wacky article, I'd have managed :) ). Read this post just now and ran for envelope thinking there would be a postcard in it, but I see it's a mail-away. It's a good article, and I'm looking forward to another Wacky item in the mail! I'll have to take care of this after work tonight. Thanks Neil, Fred and Les!!

I subscribed to this for years and then suddenly they stopped coming. I never got the end ofmsubscription warning and once i missed a few issues, i never got motivated to resubscribe.
-
I just heard back from Les. Here's the email he sent:
Hi Tom- Paypal $1.50 for (2) Wacky postcards in oversized envelope. Or send $1 via snail mail. I can't send them out for free; sorry. Thanks- Les Davis
PS The address: The Wrapper, 2020 Farmington Lakes Dr. #15, Oswego, IL 60543.
I just sent him the 1.50 via paypal. Looking forward to seeing this card!

SPOILER ALERT!!!!!!!
Here's a pic of the Wrapper promo if you can't wait to see it:

Les' PayPal account is: leswrap@comcast.net As indicated, here are the 3 options....
1) Paypal $3 for the new Wrapper issue with 2-page Wacky article...plus (2) Wacky postcards sent separately
2) Paypal $1.50 for just the (2) Wacky postcards
3) snail mail $1 for the (2) postcards. Thanks- Les Davis, The Wrapper
-
I just sent $3.00 to Les and I can't wait to see the article and postcard. I have never heard of The Wrapper...so thanks to Neil for posting about this release. I am very excited about this. I have gotten to where I almost like the postcards more than the stickers. I think the larger size agrees with my aging eyes better.
Someone get ready to update the master list.

Just sent Les some paypal. The wrapper is how I repurchased series 1 - 10 before the internet took over.
I subscribed for awhile and look forward to checking out a new issue.

Excellent. Sent my $3+ in and looking forward to both the magazine (which I think I heard about umpteen years ago) and the Wacky style postcard.
Thanks for posting the info! :great:

So are there two postcards or just one? Neil referenced just one but it looks like Les is saying two?

I could be wrong, but I think you'll get two copies of the same postcard.
-
I could be wrong, but I think you'll get two copies of the same postcard.
I got the impression from Les' email that it was two copies of the same postcard. I went ahead and bought the WRAPPER issue as well... its probably been 10 or 11 years since I subscribed and am curious as to what it looks like these days. Like someone else indicated, it was a good source for Wacky's before the internet really became so accessible. The downside is that the advertisers remained fairly stagnant and if you subscribed much more than a year, you were basically seeing the same items for sale over and over again. Plus, once you got used to email, the snail mail pace of much of the correspondence associated with the sellers/traders advertising in the WRAPPER was demotivating. I am sure that has changed.
-
Two copies of the same postcard is correct.

-
Les mentioned in an email reply to me that he was being inundated witrh orders for the promo and may have to stop taking orders soon; so time may be of the essence if you want to get in on this one.

I just listed the "Loaffy Taffy" artwork on ebay! Here's the auction:

I sent Paypal gift payment so he wouldn't lose anything.

I received both the latest issue of THE WRAPPER and the two postcard promo cards in the email today. Super fast delivery.

Did you get the magazine as well? I'm wondering how the article is that Neil mentioned.

I did. It's a nice one page article on the PCs. Not much new ground for forum members, but it does mention that PC series 8 will have "many more than just six cards in the set". The opposing page has some black and white images of some of the 2011 Halloween PCs.
Here's a link to the author's website:
http://www.monsterwax.com/
And one for the Wacky PC checklist (courtesy of our own RawGoo, I believe):
http://www.monsterwax.com/WackyPostcards
And finally, one for the article itself:

Does anyone know how many of the Loafy Taffy postcards were produced?

err, the info about that first set is wrong - there wasn't a bonus card, and certainly not one that changed between the limited and unlimited releases.
and the info on the first halloween set is a bit off too.
-
I sent payment through Paypal and I asked him if it was necessary to send a SASE and he replied there's no need to.

I got mine really fast too! And, yes, thanks for posting the info. I'm glad I got in on this offer.
Les mentioned in an email that he got lots of requests from Wisconsin (where I live). Had no idea there were many Wacky collectors in the Badger state, but I guess that just goes to show we have good taste in this state.
-
I just emailed Les at The Wrapper to see if he knew how many postcards were produced.

Hey Neil, Loaffy Taffy looks great! Kudos on getting it placed as a Wrapper exclusive.
I submitted Loaffy for ANS8, but Topps passed at the time. Here's the rough that I sent in:

Just got a note from Les saying that if you haven't ordered the latest Wrapper and postcards that there are still many postcards available, but he would prefer no multiple orders or repeat orders.

Wow, it's like some collectors that aren't in the loop just go crazy when they see a new item they aren't familiar with, thinking it must be super rare or something. What a waste of money!
-
I saw that on eBay a few days ago, and have been watching it for fun, had no idea it would go for that.
As P.T. Barnum once said 'There's a sucker born every minute.'
-
I emailed Les Davis about the quantity of Loaffy Taffy that were produced. Here is his response:
"Approximately 2000...less if you count some with corner dings(thrown out). Best- Les"
-
I just ordered my set, it pays to read from the beginning of a thread LOL. Thanks!
-
Does any one have an extra they would sell to me at a reasonable price?
It doesn't sound like it's sold out yet. for $3.50 you can get 2 postcards + the wrapper directly from the source. Just send a paypal payment to:leswrap@comcast.net and 2 days later you'll have your postcards. He was VERY fast with the shipping for me.
-
Just got my postcards and issue of the Wrapper, so happy with both. What a great magazine. Nice article on the Wacky postcards.
Love the postcards! Thanks Les!

It's been 2 weeks and I still haven't seen mine. I think I confused Les because I renewed my Wrapper subscription and added the extra money for the postcards on top of that payment. I gave him a note with my paypal payment and sent him an email which he acknowledged, but after exchanging several emails with him he seemed confused.

Same here. Although I did receive the Wrapper issue - just no postcards. Les said he'd send it again in case it got lost. Looking forward to seeing it.

Did you ever receive your postcard? I have not, even though Les said he'd send out another one in case mine got lost in the mail.
Get this: I had actually forgot about it till yesterday, so I wrote to him and he replied saying yes he sent out a replacement, and is wondering if I'm pulling his leg but will send out one more. He also put me on his blacklist!! I guess I can't really blame him, if he really did send out 2 others... I'm going to check with a neighbor that sometimes gets our mail mis-delivered, just in case. I replied to Les and said don't bother sending another, that I will get one from a forum member instead.
So... if anyone has an extra one to sell me, please let me know. I would at least like one in my collection.

Mine finally came in a little postcard sized envelope but had no protection around the cards so the corners got dinged up.
-
He sent mine in a plain envelope. Mine were perfect but I was nervous opening the envelope. I think he just views these as freebies so he doesn't care how they're packed.
-
I received mine today as well in an envelope no bigger than the postcards. All 3 have a dinged corner. :'(

I agree, still it seemed strange to me since he knows the trading card biz. I would have rather paid for it and had it well protected. Fortunately mine isn't too bad.

I'm glad i'm not the only one who has had problems with the Wrapper Postcards. I wasnt going to say anything cause so many people were praising Les, that I thought I was just the exception. But as usual if it involves me, it has to be a notch higher. Word for word...
"Hi Les, I am writing to you about the newest WRAPPER mag and WACKY postcard promo. I looked on your site for a listing to buy this issue and order the promo. I was unable to find that page to order. Can you please help me i would love to get a 1 year sub. and order form for the promo. Any help would be appreciated."
His reply...
"Hi Jim- You can Paypal $24 for a one year sub and I will also include (2) Wacky postcards at no charge. Paypal to my email address: leswrap@xxxx.net or call with cc numbers: 630-877-xxxx. Thanks- Les"
2 weeks later...
"Hi Les, I received my 1st issue of my year subscription. I did not get any Postcards, are they going to be in a separate envelope?
Thanks for the help,
Jim"
Again, his reply...
"Hi James- You didn't read my announcement on p.8. However, since you subscribed in part to get the postcards, I will send 2 out tomorrow to you."
I got them a few days ago, in the same small envelope with no protection, 2 of the 4 corners are Bent!, and the kicker...they are covered in printers ink and there is no gloss. These were rejects CLEARLY! I cant help but feel Les Thinks he did me a favor by sending me this garbage after i went the extra mile and ordered the Mag for a year and not just that issue. >:D

Interesting... It could be that Les did not anticipate the obviously overwhelming response for postcard requests.
Thanks go out to forum member sunsweat for offering me a postcard at no charge. Wacky Forum members rule!

That's funny because I had the same exact response from him, about not reading page 8. He kept referring to page 8 and making it sound like I wasn't following directions or something. When I first sent him the money for the order I couldn't have been more clear about the fact that I added the extra money for the postcards, and he didn't say anything. Very strange. At least I know I wasn't alone in my experience! haha

YOU SHOULD HAVE GOT THE CARDS FROM COACH BELICHECK
-
So does anyone know what Page 8 says?
-
Wow, I sent him three dollars in an envelope, received the items in a timely manner, yes the postcards came in an envelope the same size, but in perfect condition. Maybe the cold hard cash helped.
-
I had no problems at all, and what does Bill Belichick have to do with anything?
-
So does anyone know what Page 8 says?
Page 8 tells how to get the Postcards. And NO repeat orders! So do i get blacklisted for a repeat order, or do i just forget ever wanting the postcard?
So now i have no legible postcard!

I just got a mailing/advert today for the Wrapper with a yellow slip of paper that reads "3 Free Wacky Postcards with your $20 subscription." The advert did mention that Neil Camera will have a Wacky/Topps column. I assume that means in each upcoming issue.

Per Les:
"The Wrapper magazine exclusive Wacky Postcards('Loaffy Taffy') are still available at a dollar each(minimum 3 and maximum 8). Please use Paypal to LesWrap@comcast.net and make sure your street address shows. This offer is for U.S. only. The success of this promotion has prompted Topps to plan another Wacky postcard for 'down the road.' Thanks to all! --Les Davis, The Wrapper"
-
Les asked me to post a note telling those who received dinged postcards to contact him for replacement.
-
The advert did mention that Neil Camera will have a Wacky/Topps column. I assume that means in each upcoming issue.
I take the advert to mean that Neil has an article within issue #265, nothing more
-
I was very happy when Les sent me new Undamaged postcards! He sent a few extra, if there is anyone who for some reason didnt get any? Let me know...

Is Issue #265 which will have a Neil column the next one to come out? I can't find the issue I purchased with the postcards. We can prebuy just the next issue correct? I would not want to miss out on Neil's something extra.

Me being way behind the times, I'm going to try Les. There was a post a little ways back that said he had 2000 of them left? Keeping my fingers crossed......

They are still available! Got mine in the mail today! :great:

Just a suggestion, he will probably ask you to send in a postage paid addressed envelope to mail them in, and I would use a photo mailer or something with protection. He will send them in a regular thin envelope and mine came in with dinged corners.

So I am digging up this old thread as I try hard not to create redundant threads. I found my stash of Wrapper Magazines starting with issue #175 dated Nov 200 going to issue 247 Jan 2010. 61 magazines in all, missing 184, 188, 194, 197, 198, 200, 201, 203, 208, 210, 228, 246. These are well preserved as they have been preserved in a sealed plastic bin all these years.
I see sold auctions on ebay for back issues ranging $3 and up per issue, had no idea there was a market for these. Prefer to sell as one lot if anyone is interested. Will probably list on ebay in about a week if not sold before then.

I once got a Loaffy Taffy postcard off of eBay for my Wacky Halloween Postcards collection and it was perfect - no dinged corners at all.

Wow... saw this post & checked out the website and it looks like Les is still doing the Wrapper. Amazing. Cool dude, so I'm glad he's still able to do it. I miss "The Wrapper" and "The Recycler". The only 'newspapers' I read in the 90s, really. Cheers to Les!
