Wish upon a falling star, beware of the black cat and 69 other superstitions!  "Life is a precarious business. Small wonder, then that our ancient forebears were keen to stack the cosmic deck. If you've ever heard that secret voice inside who says: pick up that lucky penny . . . what could it hurt?, then you share something with me and most of the human family," says Christensen.

(A booklet with each print explains all 72 superstitions.)

This print retired April 15, 1998.
