Well, let's see:
1. It's still made--YIPPEEEEEEEEEEE !!!
That, Beeman's and Clove can still be found. What I heard from the company is that they only do a couple of runs a year because people don't buy it very much. But when they do, I buy a full box of each. Grampa taught me the value BlackJack gum.
6. Our local dairy quit them about three years ago, couldn't find any replacement bottles. (refer to the bottom)
14. Still have a Chubby Checker 45 and a box of 78's that weight a TON
15. I found one in an worn out wallet awhile ago.
16. Still have the suitcase style - a Philco,Turquoise and a weird white/yellow and it has both speakers. I think it may still have a straight-pin for a needle.
17. The tray now holds misc nuts and bolts, the cube maker with the lever is long gone.
18. Do you remember the smell ?
22. Metal Capguns and a roll of caps ? Pop the caps with a fingernail.
23. What went on is no Urban Legend!!!
25. With a Handle Crank that flattened all kinds of stuff?
25a. and the glass washboard that went with it. And from that is derived the 'washboard road', yes ? Now what kid would know that?
6. If you ever get the opportunity, drink milk paskaged in a glass bottle, you will be very surprised at the taste difference. I'm not one for the 2% or 1% that comes in the waxed cardboard box or plastic jug, tastes like water milk. But from a bottle, I can tolerate the 2% stuff. OH WELL, that's my $.02
