The Mego Corp 1960 Catalog

[RSS]

A new entry into the Mego Library today, this time it's something rarely seen or talked about. Before they were the World's Greatest Toy Company Mego was an efficient company that sold modestly priced toys in something called "The Basement Department".
For a small company, they could provide an entire toy department with what needed and it's an interesting and terrific piece of Mego history.

My favorite is the "Bend Me Beatnik" doll. It looks like he has a bong!

On the "like mother" page I noticed an item that ties into a later Mego release. A Robin Hood game! Now your collection is incomplete! Start searching ebay now!!!

Cool stuff Brian, thanks!

Okay, thanks Mike J!

I also spotted a "Pirate soap dish" in the infants section, but that's kind of pushing it.
