I don’t know if this key chain is from J.R. Minick Sr.’s souvenir collection or J.R. Minick Jr.’s collection. But at 50 cents it’s an old one. Wonder which shop it came from? Wonder what year or yeas it was in the shops. S & H Green Stamps are one of those items you have to talk about with a person of a certain age. Also wonder if this was an item in Skeet Richards Trading Post. Maybe someone knows?
Whatever the story, we know it wasn’t and isn’t guarding anything, but tomorrow’s another day.
Randall and Rachel Duell were so important in our lives, especially Bob’s. Mr. Duell was Bob’s mentor and the people in his office lifelong friends. I’m happy to feature them, their humor and kindness. Enjoy this side of two marvelous people.

Doesn’t every games area need a Wave Swinger? Sure!
Just a coloring book page colored by a young boy with a signing from Walt Disney.
Remember dimes?
Remember throwing dimes?
Remember aiming the dimes into the center of a Lucky Strike target?
Remember you could throw dimes from four sides because the game is a Center Joint?
Remember the big glass goblets the game operator put over the dime and target because the dime was so close to being in or out of the target?
Remember the soft sweeper broom used to sweep all the dimes into the surrounding trough?
Remember the thrill of the win – because the prizes are very large stuffed animals.
Yes, the below target is for The Dime Pitch Game.
Great game. Great memories.
Might be coming to a great attraction soon.
