Political Card Model (?!) from Chicago Tribune

[Art Deco]

First time I encountered a political card model! Is this a sign of papercrafting's growing popularity?

The Chicago Tribune is is offering this free paper model of Illinois Senator Roland Burris as Pinocchio, with extendable nose. Link leads to a Boing! Boing! (blog) article describing it (includes image). Article links to the PDF.

Disclaimer: No political commentary intended on my part, I post this for its novelty value.
