More Company Details: What The Lighter Side Says:
"The Lighter Side® is a division of The Johnson Smith Company®, one of America's oldest catalogs companies. In 1905, our founder, Alfred Johnson Smith, started selling his novelties and practical jokes in Australia. The company was officially founded in the U.S.A. in 1914, when Mr. Smith shipped his first package from Chicago...
Our story is not without sociological aspects and influences. During the 1920s and 1930s, practical jokes and home hobbies provided an escape for people wracked with economic struggle brought on by WWI and the Great Depression. Our 700-page catalog provided hours of "escape," fun and fantasy for the depressed nation, even without having to place an order! Even today we hear from people who remember our catalog and the "relief" we provided! Today, the Johnson Smith catalog is known as Things You Never Knew Existed and still brings hours of enjoyment to people across the country...
In 1979, we added The Lighter Side catalog to serve a growing audience—from girls to grandmothers and boys to grandfathers. The Lighter Side is a unique collection of over 500 lighthearted gifts of "wit and whimsy, merriment and mirth."
Famous for its collection of licensed and nostalgic collectible merchandise, like Betty Boop™, Wizard of Oz™, Coca-Cola®, Looney Tunes™ and more, the catalog offers gift-givers some amazing choices that they won't find anywhere else.
The Lighter Side catalog has already won the "Best in Catalogs" Award and has delighted hundreds of thousands of mail order and Internet shoppers...
