#TBT Fone Bone Phone Cards! Before the
technological advance of cell phones, there was a time when you had to rely on
calling cards in order to make long distance calls at phone booths (remember
those!?) or if you couldn’t afford long-distance calls on your home phone. In
the mid 90’s Cartoon Books was asked to do a short run of calling cards
featuring Fone Bone and Thorn.
A Fall rain is kinda nice…
