Here's a few neat vintage espionage toys I've spied of late that I thought I'd blog before they self-destruct.
Here's the Lone Star Cigarette Box Pistol. It's related to the cane guns we've reprod and used the same small red ammo. It looks really smart and I love the card art!
This toy pistol caught my eye because it reminded me entirely of my old Joe 90 attache case.
On closer inspection they're quite different!
Joe 90 below. Did you have this case?
These blow moulded super spy walkie talkies look so simple I love them. No batteries so how do they work?
And every agent needs a pipe pistol. Here's a classic carded smoker. What a toy!
And this auction medley has something for every spy. The Batman headered spy walkie talkie is odd.
Which toys do you like readers?
Those walkie talkies work on the same principle as the tin can on a string telephones did back in the day.
ReplyDeleteThanks Anon. Of course! I wonder if kids were disappointed?
