Ack. Humor writing shouldn't be impenetrably dull.

You know, I didn't notice any of the writing - it is pretty bad, isn't it? I just got a huge kick out of the clothes and the poses and the expressions. And the hair!

Hah, in 1990 I had a pair of the sunglasses seen in the lower left of this page. Nintendo POWER was printed on the sides and they were rather shoddily made.

I think I actually remember this catalog.
