    1975 Chstimas Toy Store Flyer




    Newspaper circulars for toy stores are a tough thing to find, often thrown out immediately it's a shame when you realzie what a wonderful window into our world they truly are.

    Take this one for a store called "Hagensick's Playroom" (great name) in Wisconsin, which features a veritible "who's who" of hot items for the era.



    Lots of old friends in here, like the Sunshine Family, Atomic Man, Mego Wizard of Oz, the Adventure People, Barbie and much, much more..

    Dig into the 1975 Toy Store Flyer right here!

    That bald dude in that Karate Men set reminds me of The Iron Sheik.

        I have no idea how many pounds of cookies I shoved down the throat of that Cookie Monster puppet. And of course the crumbs just ran down my arms.

          My brother actually got the magic hat set for Christmas back then. I remember thinking those "Karate Men" were cool at the time, but they didn't make it under our tree.

            WOW! So much 70s toy goodness! I have/had a lot of that stuff like Walking Baby Loves You (black version), Karate Men, Sunshine Family, Perfection (tray version), Easy Bake Oven (anyone notice that the pic is double exposed on itself?), Shrinky Dinks, the talking telephone and Connect Four. My mom never allowed me to keep catalogs or toy circulars, b/c I used to beg for toys when I saw them on TV. No way was she gonna put up w/ my shoving a circular at her showing her what I longed for on a daily basis!
            "Do you believe, you believe in magic?
            'Cos I believe, I believe that I do,
            Yes, I can see I believe that it's magic
            If your mission is magic your love will shine true."

                  I miss Child World, that's where I got all my Trek megos, since Kresges and Wolworths
                  didn't carry them.
