Remember these?

I thought I had some but I had to dig deep. Found them in the basement in a Buster Brown shoe box along with a "Pratt & Whitney Dependable Engines" medal and a medal given to us by a Russian exchange student with a picture of Lenin on it. The NJ plates have the number that was on our '64 Chevy when I was a kid. The VT plates would have belonged to my grandfather who retired to Vermont in 1954.

Does your shoe have a boy inside?
What a funny place for a boy to hide.
Does your shoe have a dog there too?
A boy and a dog a foot in shoe.
Well, the boy is Buster Brown,
and the dog is Tag, his friend
and they're really just a picture,
but it's fun to play pretend.
So look, look ,look in the telephone book
for the store that sells the shoe
with the picture of the boy and the dog inside
so you can put your foot in too.

My Condolences Ross,
We just finished construction at our place to house my Mom who is 85. In the process of sorting through her things for the move from the home she's lived in for 63 years.... Countless old treasures and memories - Especially from my Dad's Shop which was left "as-is", a time-capsule after he died in '90. Being a Depression Kid, he never threw away anything. Always said, "waste-not-want not".

I grew up in Cincinnati and I remember those tags on my parents key rings. Tags went with the owner and not the car so I guess it made sense...I had forgotten about those tags, makes me wonder how many other cool things I've forgotten. The wife makes sure that I don't forget the "un-cool" things though!
