I still have so many of my childhood things, and now that I'm sort of documenting stuff, I'm going to copy all of these things and print them off. My niece Kristin is going to get all of my collectible stuff and I think it would be cool to let her know what they are, where they came from, and little stories about my things. What she does with it all, I will never know, but at least she will know a little bit more about my childhood and can pass things like this down to her children. Wishful thinking maybe, but so be it! How fun Mamie that we had the same things!

I remember eating just as much paper as candy when I got these as a kid.

Hukd, we did have many of the same things. We grew up in a good era. You've reminded me of a lot of things that I used to have. We used to have a Kellogg's Five and Dime down the street from our house and we'd get to walk their with our dad and buy some candy. I used to love to buy Bub's Daddy bubble gum. It was about a foot long and we'd all try to stuff it all in our mouths. We used to get our wax lips, fingernails and skeletons there too at Halloween time.

Believe it or not, Mamie, I was trying yesterday to find a picture of Bub's Daddy gum! My sister Lee dared me to shove the whole thing in my mouth and of course I did. Next thing I knew...**crunch***, I'd pulled out a baby tooth and crunched it. Blech!! Can't find a picture of that gum anywhere! Oh, and I have never chewed gum since that day. The crunch and the bloody mess sorta grossed me out from ever chewing gum again!

Dfennessey, do they make them so they don't stick to the paper now? I think I haven't had them in 30 years.

Escapee -- I didn't have the perfume, but I sure loved Debbie Gibson. I saw her in concert and she was great. Oh, and I still have a bottle of Love's Babysoft. I don't know why I keep it. My DD likes to spray it every so often and I beg her not to. LOL.
