We had a toy store a few blocks away from the grade school . Every spring a man would come to the school playground with the " newest " kind of yo yo! He would show off ; walk the dog.. around the world and more I cannot remember. Of course we would all spend our saved up allowance and buy the " neat" yo yo....Pop rocks, Fizzies,Turkish taffy,bulls eyes, Pink Owl bubble gum cigars, candy cigarettes, wax mouth and mustache,Archie comics, hats with yarn pigtails,girdles,slips,bobby socks, penny loafers,saddle shoes
