I subscribe to RoadsideAmerica.com and get en e-mail whenever they feel like sending one. Today's letter featured Marx Toy Museum. I included the link but it's only good for a week.

Great toy company! So many interesting and fun things. They had a, wrecker/car set, that had repairable fenders. Can't remember the name but it was tool cool!

I had a lot of Marx toys growing up. I loved them all. I still have my Marx train set. I used the transformer for lots of "experiments" as a kid.

Marx was around for a long time. I loved the Johnny West series, but they had many cool toys.

I far preferred the Adam Smith toy museum.

You can KEEP your ****ed communist toys.

Hey,

Verna mentioned she had exchanged emails with you. Glad to see you finally made it through Check Point Charlie.

That's it! That's the one! Got that and a Johnny West outfit the same year and to top it off I fiinally got a Mattel Vaccuform. What a Christmas! The following year I got a Daisy 30/30 Winchester and a 4 lane figure 8 slot car set. Nearly shot myself in the armpit a hundred times trying to cock it like Chuck Connors.

One of my favorite things was to have Johnny West and G.I. Joe shoot it out.

Great times to be a kid!
