Dean was just 24 years old.

Working at the UAW Car Plant, The Kids Game!
I guess you can lump this in with Suzi Homemaker, chemistry sets and other "vocational" toys. But this one is a game I definitely would have wanted under my Christmas tree; The Game of Assembly!
Yes, you too can get child-sized carpal-tunnel syndrome, and pay union dues, all in the confines of your cozy tree fort.

1932 Coupe with TUPPERWARE TOP?
Imagine how the routine of leftovers might have been different, had Earl Tupper, of Tupperware fame, had a roaring success with his "pop-up" rumble-seat top. It was a good idea, but didn't really gain much traction; it's kinda ungainly, and it seems it's either a carbon monoxide deathtrap or a sweaty sauna, depending on the circumstances. Nevertheless, it all worked out for the best, as I can enjoy that leftover pasta the day after. Thanks, Earl!
