Are you JOKING?? PER can???? These things were in great shape. In the dumpster they went
They had soooooooooo much stuff, where to begin.
1-20yd dumpster
2 30yd "
2- 40 yd dumpsters
Really, I sometimes think we threw away a fortune, but just didn't have the time or energy/resourses to pick through stuff.

As Popeye used to say Well Blow Me Down...does that have a differenrt meaning today? Obviously drugs were popular in the late 40's early 50's...who makes a Jack In THe Box where a spinach can pops out and then the head of Popeye pops out the can....drug influenced design.....

Quite often things like that happen when time is not a luxury. Yes, per can. I also had what was called a WWII Diddy Bag that was sent to the soldiers by family members. It was mint with all contents and unused . The person I bought it from was ashamed of it because it had Hitler and the axis of evil on the bag. He sold it to be for 10 bucks. I listed it on that auction site a few years ago and got several 100 for the bag. I truly regret selling it. I found it in Phoenix of all places. A garage sale not to far from the hotel we were stayng at.
My big regret was not donating to the D-Day Museum in New Orleans.

I have some old Canada Dry glass bottles, 1 is still full with the top that you have to use an opener on its Quinine Water... I also have an unopened 32 oz. glass bottle of squirt, twist off cap the seal intact...

My gosh you do have quite the collection..my Mom & I have been collecting for years..But we collect all antiques and collectiables..a warehouse full. She deals in them, I just buy them or she gives them to me. When we were kids ....the smart a** remarks would have landed us a smack with the hot rod track.
....remember those! My kids just laugh at some of the things we used to do or parents used to do to us!...what about Slinky's..the real metal ones that used to get stuck into stuff and then bend! Or how about rollerskates that took a key? Yea real toys in cereal. Staying up late to watch CHILLER! Sneakin out on Sat. nights to go skinny dippin down at the lake, rock concerts that only cost $10.00. Christmas was something magical and there was a santa? Snow skeeting (grabbing on the back of a cars bumper and riding it as long as the driver didn't see ya) kids don't do this-not safe!!

Might be interested in the Squirt if it has the Squirt Boy graphics.
