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.
Hi my name is Buster Brown I live in a shoe that's my dog Tide he lives there too!
Lol
I still remember all the words to the jingle. No wonder I can't remember where my keys are - my brain is filled with nothing but advertising.
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.
I remember them and have been keeping an eye out for the one for my truck... I will have to probably make one... Might do it out of metal and paint it, but design it after the DAV tags
Those tags are really cool, I never had any or saw them.
Sorry for your loss Ross, I know the feeling having lost both parents several years ago and mother in law last year.
i had to wait to retrieve my key/tags from my winter storage location 25 miles away. wasn't one of my family tags, found it in my in-laws desk. 1958 NY (empire state) plate. note how much smaller the key is than the toyota grocery hauler. also, the f1 key can survive a dip in the lake.
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 had the same problem when we sold my parents house in which they had lived for 48 years. We now donate a lot to the Vietnam Vets and Purple Heart. It is amazing what you find in your own house.
A lot of times "back then" the keys were left in the car. My dad used to put the key under the floor mat. Until the day he came out of a store and caught a guy poking around in the truck. After that it was always locked and he kept the key in a rubber coin purse. Remember those?
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!
