When your mother dragged you to the drug store, there was the weighing machine - where for a penny, you got your weight, fortune and a picture. Sometimes if you were lucky you would get a warship, plane, or sports celebrity. If not, a movie star, or worse.

Where are these cards? Were none of them DiMaggio, Reiser, etc.? They were quite small. About an inch by 2.
