Here are some items that I don't think fit elsewhere on the site.  It's mostly
just trivial stuff, but some of the things are quite fun or interesting to view. 
In 1997, Mary Kay Place joined the rather luminous cast of 35 actors who performed the audio book Sleeping Beauty.  The 1973 Ross MacDonald mystery was originally presented as a production of radio station KCRW.  Mary Kay played "Gloria Flaherty," while Ed Asner, Veronica Cartwright, Bruce Davidson, Christine Ebersole, Stacy Keach, Audra Lindley, Richard Masur and Christina Pickles performed some of the other major characters in the book.  The whole thing runs about 7 hours and kept me awake on my last trip driving from Miami to my parents' home in suburban Atlanta.
In 2000, Ms. Place joined another huge, all-star cast to record a second audio book, The Zebra-Striped Hearse, also by Ross MacDonald.  This one runs 8 hours.  Once again it was a KCRW production.
The below shots are of lenticular buttons used to promote Mary Kay Place's first album Tonite! at the Capri Lounge Loretta Haggers.
This next thing is something in which I found particular interest.  According to the below contract, Mary Kay made an appearance on "Fernwood 2-Night."  I have seen Dabney Coleman and Graham Jarvis as guests playing their "Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman" characters, but I've never seen any episode of "F2N" that features Mary Kay Place. 
This sort of insane image is from an artist's web page.  Unfortunately, I never recorded the name of the artist or the URL of the page.  I included it here because it quite definitely is the strangest Mary Kay Place item I've ever encountered.  It is surely a testament to the popularity of "Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman." 
In 1977, "Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman" mania had firmly gripped the United States.  In order to capitalize on that popularity, Reiss Games, Inc. produced the "Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman" Board Game.  Probably as a slight nod to the popular board game Life, the tag line read, "The game of life in Fernwood." 

The object of the game is semi-surreal.  Each player has his or her own "Mary" playing piece.  Additionally, there are "Tom," "Charlie," "Martha," "Grandpa," "Merle," "Cathy" and , of course "Loretta."
Continuing on with "Mary Hartman" stuff, this is the cover of the mass market paperback of The Mary Hartman Story.  The book was a mix of sociological study of the how "Mary Hartman" affected the citizens of the U.S. and an episode synopsis of the first season.  I never had the book while the show was on the air, so that reading it 25 years later really helped me to put some of the pieces together from my rather spotty memories.  I was only 10 or 12 years old while the show was on television!
Speaking of books, there was another great "Mary Hartman" related book called Fernwood U.S.A. written by none other than Ben Stein, now famous for the Comedy Central game show "Win Ben Stein's Money."  He was apparently quite a fan of the show and had written an early review of the pilot that helped get the show on the air.  I scanned several images on the pics page from the book, which is much more of the coffee table type than the above.  A sizable chunk of the Stein book's content is purely fabrication in the "style" of "MH2."  Most of the book is just wickedly fun.  However, there is a model who stands in for Debralee Scott as "Cathy Shumway" in photos.  Some portions of the book are simply (what to me looks like) filler.  The other stand-in type models play lesser known (meaning never mentioned on the show) members of the Fernwood community.  The cover illustrates the stand-in thing.  Only half of the photos show actual cast members.  The rest of the book focuses on an individual character with pieces purported to be in the words of that character, or purported to be about that character in some local publication.  The book's fairly rare, but well worth the purchase price if you can find one.
Below are the trade ads (for publications like Billboard or Cashbox) that Columbia Records used for Tonite! At the Capri Lounge Loretta Haggers (left) and Aimin' to Please, the second Mary Kay Place album.
And finally, I won't be starting any fires with these, but they're surely hot.  Sorry for the horrible pun.  These matches were promotional items for Aimin' to Please, probably given to radio program directors as tokens to get her single on the air.
Here's another MKP contract.
This is a pic of a calendar produced as a promotional item for her second album.  Sorry that the image isn't better!

And the below is the photo press release document that accompanied the photograph of Mary Kay Place, John Denver, Roger Miller, and Glen Campbell.  The four sang together on a John Denver special tht aired on ABC March 2, 1977.

Visitors Since June, 2001
Mary Kay's 1977 album cover for Aimin' to Please was inspired by the work of Gil Elvren, the famous and prolific artist known for his pin-up girls.  His famous painting, Aimin' to Please, is listed on some resources as 1948, however on the artist's Website:

                                     http://www.gilelvgren.com

lists the date as 1946.  Perhaps the painting was completed in 1946 and used or released commercially in 1948. 

Below are three images.  The left one is a scan of the original painting.  The middle is the cover of Mary Kay's album for comparison.  The right one is a scan of a commercially available 3-D figurine representation of the painting.

Airbrush artist Joe Heiner did the album illustration.  I'm sort of jumping the gun here, as I've not confirmed it completely, but I think that I've found a page featuring other Joe Heiner art through his professional representation company's Website.  The address is:


                                  http://www.lindgrensmith.com/heiner/


The other names associated with the album's design are:

Gene Gurley - Photographer
Sandra Baker - Costume Design
Tom Steele - Design

I haven't been able to find any reliable Internet information on these people, but I'd be interested if anyone knows something about them.

Here is a commercially available street sign.  I am not entirely sure that the intent was specifically for Ms. Place.  Perhaps there are any number of first names proffered, like JANET PL or KAREN PL.
