lost & found vintage toys

the educational archives

this retro educational archives set is a fun blast from the past all in a cool tin lunchbox ~

it contains 4 dvds, thermos & cup, peechee & subject booklets ~
(someone get the lights while we start up the projector..)

'a guided tour through the darkened classrooms of the past' ~

the vintage films you saw in school to scare you off drugs & sex,
(but that only made toxic more curious..)

now let's open our peechees ~

i stopped watching, though, at the part where they show the anti-drug film about the hotdog, it just freaked me out too much..  (had i seen that one back in school my life may have gone a different road?)
