Ye aulde skate key. I could never get those blasted things to stay on, nohow.

Metal ice cube trays. I learned the hard way as a kid: don’t take the insert out while carrying it. *splosh*

I was about 10 years old when this stuff became popular. I thought it was the coolest thing since sliced bread.

When I got my very own camera, I went through these things like there was no tomorrow. They smelled good after they had been used.

I think my kids probably know what this is, but I doubt they have ever used one.

Most of our home movies were taken with something that looked very much like this.

Yes, I had one. Davy was my hero.

I loved filling up the books. There were Blue Chip stamps, Gold Strike Stamps, and Plaid Stamps, too.

They had a mockup of one of these on display at the Civil Defense center in Manhattan.

We’d go down to the center and grab a bunch of these, and then pass them out to people on the street. “Take this card, madam, it may save your life.” 11-year-old civic service…

The only real yo-yo ever made. The Duncan Imperial™. My buddy Walt and I got ours at Korvette’s.

Memories…
