Indy, I can"t quite remember just what the product was, but what has stuck in my mind is that while going through a souvenir shop in the Ozarks, and some trinket one would have thought should have been made in Japan or China was indeed made in Arkansas, whereas the cedar outhouses and cedar wishing wells which were inscribed as "Souvenirs of the Ozarks" had stamped on the bottom, "made in mainland China". I also remember a shop in New Mexico years ago and it had a hand painted sign advertising "genuine Navajo blankets". The blankets themselves had a tag which read, "made in occupied Japan". As a 10 year old kid at the time, I then learned never to believe what advertisements or most other adults had to say.
