Check out this site (http://members.lycos.nl/ltcorner/) for some of the most twisted and bizarre "Looney Tunes" images ever (Nick utilized some in his fake Halloween webtoon). I have no idea what they were thinking when they drew these.

Wait a minute! Why is Scooby Doo on an LT music book?
Because Warner Bros. thinks he's a Looney Tune. Actually, they think he's better and more important that the Looney Tunes.

Nice tails, guys. Very 1957 (or whenever that coloring book was from...)

I don't think it was the Postal Service who ripped off Bosko. It looks like somebody took their own envelope(s) to the post office to get the "First Day of Issue" stamped on them, and then turned around and tried to sell it on eBay. They must be collectible, I guess.

I've seen similar "FIRST DAY OF ISSUE" auctions for the Bugs and Porky stamps, with homemade envelopes decorated with random images from around the Internet.

I have no idea where that "Nurturing Love" Bosko/Honey picture originates...

That artwork was indeed added to the envelope privately by someone with a printer and internet access.

The 'Nurturing Love' was a stamped envelope issued by the Postal Service. In the 'First Day Cover' collecting world, the artwork on the left side of the envelope is called a 'cachet' and is supposed to relate to the stamp in some way. Someone bought this envelope, took it home and slapped the Bosko art on it, sent it to the USPS for the special cancel, and probably put it on eBay.

The number of cachetmakers has exploded now that computers have made many people into 'armchair artists' --- and even items like this one are pretty eagerly sought after.
