Great pic slats7, thanks for sharing it with us. The SMDM and Spidey shirts are too cool .

I posted this one in another thread, some of you may have already seen it. Here i am opening up my SMDM for Christmas! I wish i had kept the box . My brother just opened up a Ghost Gun and Candy Land board game.

A ghost gun!!! Super cool!

BTW, I love how, in the McDonald's pic, every boy and one of the girls has the exact same haircut. I know I sported that myself until about 1978.

Great pics. I had that haircut too. I looked just like the kid on the Mego Batcave box.

My 3-year old daughter has that haircut now, and she looks just like I did back then!

1976 birthday party.

That photo you found on flikr somehow almost looks like a modern photo faked to look 1970s, to my eye anyway. But, if you look in the window, you can see a banana milkshake dispenser, which proves it is from the 70s.

hmm, I saw a Ghost Gun at an antique store a while back, wonder if it's still there, and more importantly if it's missing anything?

It's been too long since i posted a pic. I was busy working on my Creature from the Black Lagoon. Now that he's done, i took some time this afternoon to scan some more pics. Enjoy!


Christmas, and Santa brought me a new bike! Banana seat .


Me and my neighbor with his Big Wheel.

Cool bike! Love your wood paneling!

[Fire Marshal Bill]

Hmmm.... i need a good one to spark some conversation. Let's try this one. That's my little brother in the back as Curious George .

Someone forgot to tell the two in the front it was Halloween Costume Day.

[Fire Marshal Bill]

Well, the one in the middle could pass for a young Charlie Bucket from Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. The girl on the left, perhaps a Munchkin from WOZ .

[HardyGirl]

That probably would have been me w/o a costume at that age. My mom wasn't big on Halloween. When I was 5 she bought me a Collegeville kitten mask, w/o a costume, and I was the only one in kindergarten w/o a costume.
