Boy, did this bring back some memories.
The Fisher Price Radio, found in a baggie in the Village Thrift on Clark during their half-price sale yesterday. I couldn’t tell if it worked or not but for 95 cents, who is not going to take a chance on it? And it works! Plays Happy Birthday as prettily as you would like to hear.
Look at the pretty graphics on the back. It’s stamped 1970, so it’s over 40 years old. I had to sound like a 90-year-old curmudgeon, but they just don’t make toys like they used to, do they?
I’m torn between letting the babies play with it or keeping it for display purposes — I have a bad feeling my kids can break something in five minutes that was otherwise perfect for 40 years.
