With the #LunarNewYear celebration, #Tacoma, WA has a lovely tradition of hiding a cache of tokens or glass sculptures called #monkeyshines
For the year of The Horse I was able to find some fun bobbles in the park near my home to celebrate a year of ushering in change
Rectangular white cinema ticket from Cannon Cinemas, Prince Charles, Leicester Place, London WC2. Red Cannon Cinemas logo at top left and “PRINCE CHARLES” printed in red at top centre. Film title “MONKEY SHINES” printed in faint dot-matrix style across the middle. Location listed as “LOUNGE”, row L, seat 8. Date 26.2.90, Monday, time 20:20, price £4.50. “NO SMOKING” printed in red at top right. Three punched holes run vertically down the left edge. The ticket is photographed against a dark textured background with the date “26.2.90” faintly overlaid below.
Original poster for Monkey Shines. A toy monkey with cymbals sits centred against a solid black background, lit from above so its face and metal cymbals glow. At the top, white text reads: “Once there was a man whose prison was a chair. The man had a monkey, they made the strangest pair. The monkey ruled the man, it climbed inside his head. And now as fate would have it, one of them is dead.” Large white block lettering spells “MONKEY SHINES” across the lower middle, with the subtitle “An Experiment in Fear” in red beneath. Cast and production credits appear in small white text along the bottom.
In which George A. Romero tries his hand at psychological monkey horror.
It’s fair to say this made less of an impression on me than his flesh-eating zombie movies.

Blue glass orbs float in a fountain. They look like they could be Monkeyshines... but aren't.
If only...

Please only keep ( 1 ) foil animal print, and ( 1 ) serendipity sticker per household. The stickers in particular are low in number, let's share! 💖 Good luck, stay safe, have fun during #monkeyshines!
110 little ones and 2 jumbos, I will be hiding the reversed jumbo one. I will be placing stickers on the bottoms again this year. I’m just waiting on the stickers and then they will be ready to go! #monkeyshines #monkeyshines2026 #yearofthehorse
Keep them secret; keep them safe.

Watched #MonkeyShines 🎬
George Romero on a killer monkey movie with effects by Tom Savini - that should give you an idea what to expect. It's dark and moody, but while it takes the subject matter seriously, I can't feel but to be disappointed that some plot points aren't resolved properly. #filmsky

Now watching. I saw this in the theater and always really liked it. I have not seen it probably since the late 90s. #GeorgeARomero #MonkeyShines #HorrorMovie #80sHorror #PhysicalMedia #MovieFan
