    Scenes from Toyfair 1976

    If there is a toy company that I would like to have a catalog from, it'd be Shindana, they made some neat-o toys in the mid seventies and their president had the world's greatest sideburns.







    A shot of the 1976 Azrak Hamway booth shows the two different sizes of Mr. Spock Bop Bags. It's funny to read an article where the person has no idea what Star Trek is...

          He was too busy running through the airport jumping over luggage at the time...

          The dude looks like the love-child of Wolverine and George Jefferson.

          In the AHI pic, dig that Barney Rubble swim-ring right under the zebra, and is that Fred below him?

                      Toys, schmoys, check out those suits. Why they're quite manly in their plaid. One might even call them stallions.

                                              "I called her every night..."

                                              "EVERY DAMN NIGHT!?!"

                                              Yep. That's him.
