I found these Valentines and thought they should be passed along immediately.
But first, kick all the little ones out of the room. I mean it.

Are they gone?
If the coast is clear, just look at this:
What sort of insane person creates cards for kids to pass out, which show other kids
inside of refrigerators???
Believe it or not, that card isn't the only one.
Not quite so scary, you might think. But wait.
Look what happens when you open the ice box door:
GET LITTLE JIMMY OUT OF THERE, PRONTO!!!
I want you to run out and find some children right now, and tell them to never, ever climb in a refrigerator. Not for love, nor money, nor even cake.
After I recovered from the initial outrage, I figured I should see how widespread a phenomenon fridge-related Valentines had become. Turns out it wasn't much of a movement. Thank goodness.
What I did find were some interesting refrigerator advertisements, many of which did involve children. Some are more innocent than others.
(For some reason this last one makes me want to cry a little bit.)
Not all ads were focused on the family however. Some companies decided to go glamorous. Check these beauties out.
And eventually, along came Space Glamor!
I blame Star Trek for this. Or thank them. Depending on my mood.
Regardless, I'm grateful to see that kids and refrigerators are no longer popular images for Valentines. Today's are so much saner; with little monsters, vampires, zombies, and undersea pineapple houses.
Ah, progress.
