If you buy some, tell me if it's still as much fun as I remember it.

I think the last time I remember it being sold was circa the U.S. Bicentennial year, 1976 at like a cheapo toy dept. inside of a Woolworth's shop. Remember Woolworth's? They started out all over America in the 1880's/90's as "The Five & Dime" stores. That was the five cents and the ten cents stores. They were the 99cents stores of their time. Woolworth's evolved out of them and became one of the biggest cheap trinket retail shops in the country (and with LOTS of imitators/competitors such as Grant's, McCrory's, Woolco & [was it] "Kreske's" mart, which evolved into K-Mart, I believe).
