Set Comments
Monster Greeting Cards, featuring artwork by Robert Crumb, offer non-monster "straight lines" on the card fronts,
with card backs that feature a goofy insult "monster punchline."

Monster Greeting Cards are popular with collectors of 1960's illustrated humor cards such as "Funny Valentines" and
"Insult Postcards." Not your typical monster card set, but it has lots of corny humor and a good assortment of creepy
looking characters.
