Nabisco's Bugs Bunny Cookie Clubhouse

Back in 2007, I did a lengthy post on the history of Nabisco's Bugs Bunny cookies. In that post I mentioned in passing how kids could mail away for a clubhouse kit. I had never actually seen one before... until now. We got an e-mail from Mark Hosking who found our blog while looking for more information about the Bugs clubhouse. He has one in mint condition from 1982 available on eBay as we speak. The thing is pretty impressive and huge. Yes, it was a lifesize cardboard clubhouse decorated with Looney Tunes characters. Check out the eBay link below for more pictures and even a YouTube video.

Thanks, Mark!

I have one of these in pretty good shape, but I never knew its exact origins. To the best of my recollections, mine was had for 2 or 3 bucks at an Anderson, SC Salvation army in the early '90s. It basically just sits folded up under a bed in my storage space, along with a space capsule of similar construction. It's an impressive thing, though.

Damn! That is one expensive cardboard. Good guck to anyone who has a lot of money in their checking account to win the bid.

So, what did it look like inside the clubhouse?

Oh my gosh! What a find! There's no telling how many boxes of those cookies I ate as a kid.
