Ohh. This is the best. I love those. And in the original packaging. In those brittle cardboards. How lovely. I got some from my mother in law. She had frosted ones. Icicles and cones. Nobody else wanted them. I will bequeth them to my daughter who also loves oldfashioned baubles.

Ceramic Christmas Trees! Very Nostalgic For Me
In the 60's - 70's, the Navy base in Groton, CT had a ceramics studio for the use of sailors and their dependents. You could choose your mold, buy the "slip" in a gallon jug and make your own. They would fire it for 5, 10, 25 cents each. This same Christmas Tree mold was a popular item!
The We're Out Of Buns Hot Dog
And This Type Of Skillet

Saw these recently at a store commented on the weirdness of seeing them after so long. Twenty year old cashier observed that I must be as old as his dad.
The Struggle Was Real
I’m ashamed to say, my friends and I would screw up a couple of phone book pages, and stick them up the coin return slot so coins wouldn’t come out. Then come back and remove it and spend our ill gotten gains on lollies. Don’t worry tho, I’ve been on the straight and narrow ever since! 😀

Anyone Here Old Enough To Remember This Classic
"There's a holdup in the Bronx, Brooklyn's broken out in fights. There's a traffic jam in Harlem, That's backed up to Jackson Heights. There's a scout troop short a child, Khrushchev's due at Idlewild. Car 54, Where Are You?" I am post this era but in NYC, everyone knows this song. Idlewild Airport is now called JFK, and and backed up to Jackson Heights is a reference to how almost anything can cause the Grand Central Parkway to backup
