It’s all so much fun. Except the part when one realizes the naivety during the early atomic age – samples of uranium were even included in some of the atomic science kits made available to children. Still, I often get a chuckle from it all – humanity still survived and the kids grew up okay, for the most part.
It would be cool to find the KIX ring somewhere, i.e. eBay. Cousin Spike Jr would have a real gem.

Cousin Spike Jnr would love this. He’s a sci-fi nut and well into the old 70s hit Super Heroes Squad as well Ben 10 from current era 😀

He would indeed – but he’ll have to stick to homemade stuff instead I guess 🙂

The Kix ring came out in 1947 – postage was…3 cents! Ah the good ol’ days. 🙂
