Time flies when you are having fun. That means I must have been having fun since April when I last updated anything on this site!

Cereal Toy or not
The question, is this a Cereal Toy or not? It was in a small collection of cereal toys that I purchased recently and it appears to have been partnered with a Cowboy from the late 1950's so the era is possibly correct, but it is not included in the list of Cowboy and Indian cereal toy series.

Have a look at the Blue Box Plastic … [Read more...] about Blue Box Plastic Toys
