Title: Popeye Instruction Card (Early Version Artwork)
Post by: WunderCade on September 05, 2016, 09:19:55 PM

I haven't found this instruction card in any of the art libraries so I thought I'd post a high res. scan of it for archive purpose in case someone with skill wants to reproduce in Photoshop for community use.

This appears to be the earliest version before they changed the wording "Hearts" to "Kisses" and few other differences. (Comparison below).

Thanks.
I prefer the "old" one, in fact :)

Me too, since they are not "kisses" anyway, they are hearts. This early upright card also appears to match the NOS cocktail version artwork:
