170. “Engrave the Children” Campaign

September 13, 2009

Q: I seem to recall National Lampoon had a bit parodying SAVE THE CHILDREN called, ENGRAVE THE CHILDREN. You as a sponsor would have your name permanently engraved on the child’s forehead so he would always remember you when he was grown up & leading an anti-American revolution. Anybody know where this might be found?

A: Hairy Fart Woman sez: “‘Engrave the Children’ is one of the gift ideas in “The Needless-Markets Christmas ™ Book” by Fred Graver and others. This appeared in the Dec ’83 Holiday Jeer issue of our fave mag.” Thanks, Ms. Fart Woman!
