Something else from the files of Things I Never Threw Away.
That's a scrap of unused wrapping paper featuring various DC Comics characters. The copyright date says 1980.
It's a rather unusual composition, not only because it seems to feature heroes in hot air balloons chucking presents at The Penguin... but because of the notable lack of Batman. I have to speculate that the rights to Batman were tied up by some other paper goods company, so this product had to make do with merely his sidekick and a villain-most-likely-to-be-falling-in-midair.
The original has the image staggered across the paper, but I re-stitched it into a size more readily repeated for a webpage background. Above you see the 500-width version, but I also have 1000-width and 2000-width (roughly), in case you really want to examine my slapdash stitchery.
