He had a kind of revival some years ago: some movies were shown again on television, and a (cheap, affordable) dvd box was issued by a national newspaper. Still love it!<br /><br />And I love the upper card! I like snails. Not really when they eat all my vegetables - but in general I like them as they not only belong to the ecosystem, they also are a mascotte for 'snail mail'. And I love to draw friendly mail delivering snail mail snails :-)Heleenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18206346242374113741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4609118120551505936.post-52059453738615932852018-02-18T18:47:16.200+01:002018-02-18T18:47:16.200+01:00Eva, I don't think the Mole was/is among the m...Eva, I don't think the Mole was/is among the most famous cartoons here in Sweden either. More so in Germany, and certain other countries. That's one of the things I find fascinating about post crossing...
