Things You Don't See Anymore Part 2

This one's great, and in the same spirit of the original pic I started TYDSA pt1 (the 3 story slide w/ 4" side rails ). We had similiar jungle gyms like this pic in my playground growing up in the 70's, but year by year they slowly disappeared as kids broke various bones falling off of them.

Yeah man, the one in the park I used to frequent as a kid (late 80's-early 90's) had a massive jungle gym that resembled a square pyramid...very wide at the base and only one square at the top.. When you climbed to the top it felt like you accomplished something, lol

Can't have a coffee without cream:

I'm sure many of you have never even seen one of these, 'cause they were around when I was a kid and I'm old now. Dad drank his coffee black so I'd always scoop them up and drink them straight. How I wish I'd scored some of them back then. They bring some good bucks as antiques.

Back when I was a kid, most people had milk and other dairy products delivered to their houses and they had a metal box on their porches for the milkman to put the items in it.

Wooden Printing Type

I used to work in a print shop and did hand set type. We used the large wooden type to make signs and posters.

You would surely enjoy a visit to The Hamilton Woodtype Museum in Two Rivers, WI.

Charles Chips is gone?

Way back in the late 60's / eraly 70's we used to get Charles Chips delivered, just like Milk.

As I kid, I preferred the chips!

The Charles Chips brand is being revived. They definitely won;t be delivering to people's houses like they used to though.

We never got Charles Chips home delivered, but they did hit up my wife's office weekly back in the 80s. Love them ketchips!

Marvel trading cards.

Do they still have these carts at Laundromats?

 

[Richland123]

We have Laundromats all over around here.

These cookies were really good. Burry used to make the original Girl Scout Cookies too.

Sorry, I meant the carts with the bar on the top.

I recently found out that Planters stopped making these. Kraft Foods owns Planters.
