It’s funny the things you remember
when presented with a catalog of Christmas games/toys/gifts. We all like to look and drool and dream….
Today I got in the mail a catalog from The Vermont Country Store. They can be counted upon to still provide things you thought were gone the way of the dodo. In this catalog (a Christmas-y sort of effort) they have the following: reissues of the original Monopoly game (with the mid-30’s graphics, the metal tokens, wooden hotels and houses….), the original Lincoln Logs (all wood), original TinkerToys (all wood).
Amazing. I think I’ll order them all. Oh - and they have reprints mimicking the original Nancy Drew and Black Stallion books - the ones my dippy mother decided were useless and threw away (along with the whole set of original Fiesta Ware…. *sigh*)
