Ok, I found a better picture. Apparently it's:

powered dye and a plastic syringe = water turning to blood
jumping frog = frogs
tick = lice/flies/gnats
leopard mask = wild beasts
strange green hand = some kind of pestilence causing micro-organism
ping-pong ball = "hail stone"
praying mantis = locust
sunglasses = darkness
puzzle (presumably with a dead child on it) = death of the firstborn

Plus, the plagues are just good clean fun, suitable for a variety of educational merchandising such as:
Passover Ten Plagues Finger Puppers
Crawling plagues

Kip W.: You're evil. Now I've got that song stuck in my head.

In re: religious kitsch, has anyone else seen the "Bag of plagues"? I hope they include a key because I'm not seeing the connections between some of the plagues and the "symbols" included.

While there are certainly elements of mausoleum construction that may qualify, it's unfair to dismiss the entire class of "grave architecture" as cliché.

Consider my car, which has room for up to four passengers and knows its way to Manchester, at your disposal should you need extra Boskone transport.
