You
miss your toys.
You know you do.
Some you want to share with your own kids
and grandkids. Some you just want back to relive a memory or
two. Were they as wonderful as you remember? How did it
work exactly? For that matter, what was it called?
There are toys that have never left us: Barbie dolls, G.I. Joes,
Lincoln Logs,
Tinker
Toys, Slinky, Mr. Potato Head, Play-Doh, Easy-Bake Oven,
Etch-A-Sketch, Radio Flyer.
Some pop up now and again: Colorforms, View-Master,
Fisher-Price's Chatter Phone, little green plastic army men.
But many of our favorites have faded from the public's memory.
The Ginny doll, Chatty Cathy, Stadium Checkers, Give-A-Show
projector, Venus Paradise Coloring Set, Sewing Cards, Tiny
Tears, Fascination, a plush stuffed Huckleberry Hound.

What about the toys that made am impression but you never knew
the name or the brand? Like the cowboy phone with the crank that
played a little record inside, making it sound like an operator
was talking to you? The Farmer in the Dell tin music box that
made the characters (the farmer, the wife, the cheese, etc.) go
in one tiny door and out the other as you turned the crank. The
teddy bear pull toy that played a xylophone. The rocking
horse on springs. The pink metal doll trunk. The plastic doctor
kit. What would it be like to have those back again?
Here's the place to find what you've been missing.
Ebay
is a great place to start on your baby boomer wishlist
