Christmas in the 70's book project

[palitoy]

I don't have any pics of Christmas in the 70s, but I do have some of myself with Sinterklaas and his Black Petes in the 70s, in case you wanted to devote a chapter on the "European Santa Clause" who brings presents on Dec 6th, even tho we also have the other Santa Clause.

Bring it on!

Mike, that looks like a GI joe on the right

I have to get my mother to dig out the old pictures, she packed them away somewhere in her attic and let me tell you, that attic is a very scary place....Hoffa might be buried up there for all I know. I still find vintage goodies up there every time I go up....just bits and pieces but it all adds up.

I have some from two christmases. One was a Fisher Price Christmas, the other a Battlestar Galatica. Im holding my foam viper launching gun ship thingie.

I MIGHT Have a picture of my brother and his friend and in the background is our tree decorated with wrapped boxed megos! All Superheroes.

I love these pics...I know there is a photo somewhere of me tearing into my (1978?) Star Wars (12-backs) and y-wing fighter on Christmas Morning but due to my parents divorce I am having trouble locating them.

Wow Mike, for a kid who just scored all those toys, you sure didn't look very happy. That LIS Robot is way cool, and is that a See and Say on the television set? (you have that call that cool piece of vintage a "television set".)

That Lost in Space Robot looks cool, Mike.

My family really didn't do big gifts on Christmas or Hanukkah. Birthdays was the big thing, but my mom always believed why wait to reward a kid. So I got stuff through the year every once in a while. It wasn't until the 90's and I met my wife that I got to do a Christmas morning with gifts.

x-mas 1979


Sadly, I do not have any of my 70's or 80's X-mas photos due to petty family squabbles. So here's a picture of my wife, Meghan, Christmas 1979. It's her standing with one of her all time favorite childhood toys GODZILLA from the Shogun Warriors line. She used to sleep with him like a teddy bear. Her brothers got the rest of the Shogun Warriors that year. This is one of my wife's favorite pictures and Christmas memories.

I don't have any pics of a Mego x-mas but here I am in 1978 with a classic 70's toy

[wyldpny]

These are some Christmas pics of My Dad and I from the 70's.
I am holding up a couple Star Trek items and my Dad is holding up a Radio Shack calculator:



I did't have a scanner handy so I took a picture of these photos with my digi camera so they are a bit washed out and show a few spots on the pics thanks to the flash.
