MORE HALLOWEEN PORCH DECORATIONS

More Halloween porch pictures! Geez, I wish I had the original poster this cabbage monster came from. 


Veeery nice! The original of this would have been a great portrait to frame and put up on the wall of a guest room.  


This guy's great! There's half a chance the girl you marry will have a brother like this. 


Why don't cereal boxes have cutout masks like this one (above)?

Every year the Halloween stores offer some new category of things. Last year it was realistic plastic animal skeletons and dog costumes. This year it's blow-up balloon gear and cat costumes. 


I like the "Spirit" stores' new slogan: "Make Halloween Great Again!" Amen! It's a great holiday!



I love creepy old woodcuts and etchings (above). 



Hand-painted, charming, funny drawings like the one above make great porch pictures. 


Believe it or not, this (above) was a newspaper illustration. 



Big, home-made, framed cartoon characters make great porch decorations. I like mixing funny cartoons with pictures of monsters and ghosts.

I want the first picture to be the glamorous girl gloating over the swooning cabbage monster! Scarier /and/ funnier.

This post shows the two extremes of cat behavior. Saving it's mistress, and eating their master! You never know what's going on in the feline brain. Do you know who painted the spooky guest room pisture? I love that painting. It would work so well in a haunted house.

Nodnar: That was a good picture, wasn't it? It beats the picture Joan Crawford preferred, the one she used for the cover of her book. I don't know who painted the one we like.

Eddie, I love that woodcut illustration of the cats eating their master!
It's like an early B. Kliban cartoon, no? Also, I quite agree with the idea of mixing appealing cartoons with Spooky ghouls for Halloween decorations! Now there's an idea for next year, no?
