Spotted Online – 1982 Hershey’s Holiday Catalog at Collecting Candy

I’ve posted a few modern holiday candy bits here at battlegrip.com over the last month or so — see Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup and Hershey’s Kisses Christmas Tins and A Snickers Large Enough to Kill With — but nothing that compares to this 1982 Hershey’s Holiday Catalog.

Now do people even make holiday catalogs like this anymore? I know I sometimes get some very simple catalogs in the mail from online retailers, but I can’t remember the last time I saw something so specific and wonderful as this Hershey’s catalog. Has the internet completely destroyed catalogs forever? It would be a shame if that were true and we couldn’t look forward to nifty catalogs in our mail every now and then.
