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.

How about a scan, or picture of this advert. Please?

Les just sent me an email today stating the postcards that he sent to me came back undeliverable because he wrote the wrong street name for my address...   :^)

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!


If I actually do receive any from Les, I'll send you one no charge.

So this is why one of these cards sold for over $100 on ebay. A near mint card is rare. :]

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.

I take the advert to mean that Neil has an article within issue #265, nothing more

I didn't get any. Wasn't sure if there were any left and whether it was too late to send Les the money via PP.

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.

I got my issue #265 today, and Neil's new column is in there.  Unfortunately, it refers to Old School 3 already having been released........  darn printing deadlines!!

No pics, but a couple of titles are mentioned - I'm hoping one is going to be the puzzle.

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......

Send me your borderless wackys!

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!
