Andrew Schroeder

While garage sale shopping this weekend I came across this wonderful gem of a book from the 1980s. Apparently someone had the brilliant idea of making Nancy Reagan a role-model for youngsters through the novel paper cut-out format. I can only imagine the conservative Republican mother buying this for her hopefully conservative daughter… never realizing it would end up in the kitsch-loving hands of a gay male, atheist, and socialist named Andrew.

Oh… how history has a sense of irony. I especially love the note that indicates the user not to cut out between Nancy and Ronald. However, I believe Ronald’s mental instability, Nancy’s running of the country via psychic advisors and ultimately the cold hand of death would do the trick of tearing those two apart better than my librarian scissors ever could.
