I vaguely recall CC Rider (spell check)

Ah yes, I remember that...

One we used to drop a coin in for regularly was this one......this was in the mid 70's 20 years after it's first release, we'd just discovered it and we loved it

Growing up we had an ice cream store around the corner from where I lived. We would hang out there everynight and I would play any Elvis song.When I was 15 yrs old I met my future husband. He would play "I've Got a Funny Little Feeling" over and over again.

I remember playing this as a kid, with family. This, of course, is a modern version of the old wood mallets.

Hahahaha, JimW I can totally understand that. I had a little bag that held all my jacks and rubber ball. My mom made sure I picked them all up before I was finished.

Pinky, my girlfriends and I played Jacks for hours. That and jump rope. Before the video games.

We always threw away the rubber ball and played with an old golf ball.

Good thread @hollydolly. I remember most of the items posted here. Will look for some more from my country. From the 60/70s.
