introduced to a brand-new GoComics! See more information here. Subscribers, check your

Yeah. They were advertised to create a bigger picture, but mainly produced a distorted funhouse mirror image. If there had been infomercials in those days, this would have been one of those “AS SEEN ON TV!” offerings.
Aunt Fritzi is saving up for one of those clear overlays with a green stripe across the bottom and a blue stripe up top, so they can enjoy “color TV.”

Didn’t they have a similar product that turned your black and white TV into a color TV? I’m sure it worked equally well.

Good strategy kid. And imagine a time when such a thing was needed to watch many TVs.

And you got a lot for a penny back then. Today a penny’s worth would truly be a sad sight.
