A small sampling of fun stuff from the toy section of a National Bellas Hess bargains mail order catalog, dated 1958... lots of neat items in this one, I might post more from it later this month.
I wonder what the budget model looked like. It must have been the budget model if the top of the line cost $1.69, which wasn't super expensive even in 1958 (kids, save your nickels and dimes to own your own dancing monkey!)
I wonder how much these toys would sell for as vintage/antiques today.
Yeah no fair. I want to see a picture of the smaller, eighty-nine cent monkey playing the banjo. The Rock 'n roll banjo. But seriously, that thirteen inch Popeye vinyl figure is the catnip here.

That's the new relaxed look? That Dress Like Mommy pic is so freaking hilarious.
And I KNOW you want that Rock 'n Roll Monkey. AND the Popeye punch bag. AND the Clown Target Set with hat that pops off.
and the stole
I'm afraid to check eBay
Is mommy a gun moll?
