I never thought in all my years I would come across an unused paint by number craft kit at a thrift store but I did and for only 2.99!
A velvet painting one... The Matador with frame, 1964.
The oil paint is all dried up but I think I like his look unpainted.
He had a senorita to match as this included ad shows.
Also included in the kit was a huge sized newspaper type full color catalog of other available kits!
I really love the 'Oriental Garden' three piece set shown bottom middle.
On the back is a small kid's craft section of kits I have never seen before. The illustration styles with the Numbered Glitter Kits is neat. I also like the wood grain panel tile kits, especially the 'Rocket Ship'. And check out the Nylon Net Kits! There's Tillie the Turtle!

WOW!!! That is amazing find, Mary!!!!
I really like those Nylon Net kits! Too bad those aren't around anymore :)
These are outstanding! (Rob)
There are so many old craft kits that I wish were still being made! I will just have to take matters into my own hands and try to figure out how to do them with out the instructions...or pre-measured and cut supplies...or materials that aren't made anymore....ugh!
