Morty Comix # 2593
Morty Comix #2593 was tucked under a table at a Tumwater, Washington fast food outlet. At this particular place it is my goal to hit every designated dining spot in this establishment, which amounts to a real caper since I only go there during the busy lunch hour. So far I believe I have left at least six Morty Comix there. The spot has been illustrated by a planetary zoomout.

Favorite Movie Quotes: Slaughterhouse-Five
Postcard - Seattle, Washington
"Olympic Hotel, Seattle, Wash."
From the 1920s (when the Hotel was brand new) judging by the cars in front
The Olympic still stands today as a Seattle icon
Favorite Movie Quotes: Mystery Men
"You must be like the wolf pack, not like the six-pack."
I know this movie was panned, but I thought it was superb
Postcard - Seattle, Washington
"Lake Washington Floating Bridge - World's longest bridge constructed of concrete pontoons is an engineering marvel. Constructed and financed by tolls, it is now free and carries U.S. Highway No. 10 directly east from downtown Seattle and on through Snoqualmie Pass to the east."
I'd guess this dates from 1959-1960
