I like the two I own--a
Hit Man slide and something I acquired off of eBay a few months back, a
Wheel of Fortune art card with Chuck Woolery which is very 70s. They make great desktop wallpaper (read: take it and enjoy!) until several of your students see your desktop and ask about the freaky looking guy whose name isn't Pat Sajak.

As far as the "Hit Man" slide, that's EXACTLY what my original post referred to, as far as the network-produced slides go.
I can say that I have seen art cards & slides used by local stations (moreso the independent stations) all the way into the early 90's. What was WXON -- TV 20 in Detroit used to have slides/cards going into and out of most, if not all, of their breaks.
WXON had some great ones, as I recall, for Love Connection, The Newlywed Game, and Perfect Match (The Goen Version), to name a few.
If anybody has any game shows with the art cards/slides intact, link an image -- it would be pretty interesting to see how they did them in each local market.
Now as far as that Woolery card...if that picture doesn't make you think of "Naturally Stoned", I don't know what does!! That would have made one helluva picture sleeve for Chuck's one-hit-wonder 45.
