Something I always got in my xmas stocking was a multicolour rocket pen. Some of them really were rocket shaped, but the majority just alluded to the rocket shape. In the sixties, this was enough though as the space race permeated everything, space food, clothes,tv,games etc. The rocket pen came in handy for me when I was busily writing the multi volume space project, all the different colour biros in one pen were a great help as I scribbled away in the back of a car or bus, or in the caravan. The other good thing was after the ink ran out, the pen always yielded a number of interesting bits for thr scratch building box!
Just before xmas, I treated myself to a novelty pen via ebay, at 99p and still carded with some lovely hot wheels style graphics, the Hot Rod pen was a real must.
