   I think there was a similar product in the 60's or 70's. I remember these   
   little decal faces on our bathroom medicine cabinet (there were four of them)   
   similar to the ones shown on the Simpsons. When I was a kid I asked my mother   
   where they came from and    
   she said that they were part of an egg decorating kit! Vincent Price's Egg   
   Magic may be a combination of his role as Egghead and an actual egg decorating   
   kit.
