Mummy Charm Pamphlet Help

[Em_L._Pea_Customs]

Hello!  I completed my Mummy Charm set today! I would like to put them in a shadow box, with the pamphlet/insert.  I think I'll just print a copy off as a place holder though, as they seem pretty pricey on ebay.  My questions are:

Does anyone have a high quality scan of the Mummy Charm pamphlet/insert?

Can anyone provide the dimensions of the original pamphlet?

Thanks so much, in advance!

See if this scan is a high enough quality: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B_LEQN5yN-3wX1M0dUc1S1AyaHc/view?usp=sharing

Unfortunately, there are a few pen marks from using it as a checklist back then, but they can probably be edited out fairly easily.  The dimensions are 6 7/8 in. x 13 in. (11 in. if you leave off the form for the charm bracelet).

The scan is perfect!  Thank you so much, Breyer600!  I really appreciate the information on the sizing as well.  You are awesome!

Glad I could help!

This is slightly off topic but I couldn't help but notice the name is "Mummy Charms" on the top of the pamphlet and "Mommy Charms" in the text. In the UK it's all just "Mummy Charms" as we use the word "Mummy" here as normal, but I've never seen a US pamphlet before. Is that normal, the two different versions of the word?

The pamphlet I had as a kid said "Mommy Charms", but there might have been more than one US pamphlet.

This is a really small image from eBay, but you can see on this one there's an O instead of a U.

Hm. Interesting. Also weird...thanks for the image. Maybe a typo or someone got muddled...?

Uk one is a little different in how Mummy Charm is written under the rainbow so it isn't related to that I don't think.

Yep, the US got two versions for some reason.  I actually have both from childhood.  I only scanned the better of my two which just happened to be the one with Mummy in the title.  (The one I have that says Mommy has lots of highlighter and other writing.)

This has been so interesting to me...thanks for sharing, guys!  I am in the US, but when I started collecting years ago, I must have seen the "Mummy Charm" pamphlet, because that is what I have always called them.  Now I feel like I will need to hunt down either a UK version or one of the mashup versions.  Just when I start feeling comfortable in my knowledge of MLPs, I realize I don't know crap.


P.S.  To my UK pony friends - Do you ever get confused when using "Mum" and "Ma'am".  They sound the same, at least to my American ears, with your accents.  When I started to watch UK TV/movies, it used to confuse me...I'd be like, "Did that police officer just call his Commander, "Mom"?

The UK one is similar to the US one but not the same. I'm in London so can't dig out anything and don't have a scan on my site, unfortunately - not of the whole thing. I checked but I haven't scanned the Mummy Charm comic advert either, which I think has the same poem as the US one. Mummy Charms is written in blue text, though, which I always assumed was an alteration from the US "Mommy Charms".

Hehe xD No. They're totally different xD. If I remember right "Ma'am" pronounced like that is generally reserved for talking to the Queen, which most of us don't do regularly. Ma'am in other terms is more like "mam"...rather than the longer ma-am you guys use I think?

And Mum is muh-m. Although in Wales you might get it sounding more like Mam and in the black country/west midlands/Birmingham area they do say Mom, though with a shorter o than the American version.

I guess its a subtle difference thing, but there's also context?

Agreed, there's a linguistic difference! I can see how most Americans may not get it, though...I'm just used to UK accents because of my mom and her family.
