Hello. I'm new to this forum but have visited Dave's Show Rod page for years.
My question: Does anyone have a complete list of mail-in show rod posters offered by Monogram?
I have the following: Pie Wagon T'rantula Red Baron Boothill Express Beer Wagon
I've seen the following but do not own: Paddy Wagon Garbage Truck
I also have a Tijuana Taxi (poster) that is the same size but mounted on a stand-up cardboard display. I believe this was a store display. It is identical to the original model box top. The Boothill Express poster I mentioned above is also mounted on this type of display board but it is not a box top copy, but rather the same as the mail-in poster.
Thanks

I've never seen any of the posters ; were they the same design as the trading cards that were included in the kits or were they like the box art ?

I'll try to attach some pics. They are all 12-1/4" X 18-1/4".

Welcome to the fold. I'm sorry, but I have never seen any of the folders myself.

And finally, the Paddy Wagon and a couple versions of the mailer tubes they came in.
The seven posters listed on the (2) different order forms may be all there is and the Tijuana Taxi may have only been in store display form.

Welcome! Those graphics are KILLER - Iโd love a full set of those! Way cool! Donโt have anything to contribute, but Iโm envious of your collection! ๐๐๐ป Thanks for the welcome! As I'm sure of many, Monogram Models played a big part of my childhood and teen years. When I was eleven years old my older sister's boyfriend gave me his built "Garbage Truck". I was hooked! I must have built that kit 4-5 times since. I'm 62 and still get excited to find any vintage Monogram/Tom Daniels stuff at a garage sale or antique shop. I think I remember Monogram advertising a "Model of the Month" at my local TG&Y store during the early '70s. That's where I first saw the factory-built displays. I think Dragon Wagon was the first one I payed attention to......or maybe it was Paddy Wagon.....it's been too long. I never ordered the posters when I was a kid. I'm glad others did!

I believe I have a complete set as well as 2 mailers with the original posters still in them. I have a number of the displays as well. Your Tijuana Taxi display easel (as they are called) is sweet! I have a Badman like that but it is actually partially die cut. I've always been fascinated by the promotional items. You have a very cool collection.
