lost & found vintage toys

pins & buttons

heyyy! it's the fonz! remember when this was cool? was it mork from ork with his rainbow suspenders with buttons that started the button craze in the 70's? i know it's what started toxic on her first collection, pins & buttons, & she also wore them on rainbow suspenders ~

toxic herself with a friend in the swimming pool ~

one of the first items i posted here at the lost & found was toxic's first button.. i'll be posting a glut of vintage pins & buttons all through august ~

then there were school spirit buttons, these are from toxic's jr high ~

i was friends with the kid who designed this tumbleweeds themed button for our school, he got permission from the artist, tk ryan.. back when native americans were still mascots & referred to as indians ~

vintage snoopy pin ~

as kids we all lined up & waited for hours to see 'the hulk' at a local mall, thinking it'd be lou ferigno himself.. they said he was giving out signed pictures.. i still remember how disappointed my little brother was to find out it was only a guy in a hulk costume handing out these pins! ~

now this vintage rainbow happy face pin has a different significance ~

vintage peace sign ~

toxic's high school ~
