Can't really describe my thoughts when seeing this pic initially.
Every kid in the 70's had one of those...
They sold them at every TG&Y type store...
I'd always lose the stupid rubber gasket...

Don't know when this photo was taken, guessing around 1970, but these women look like friends moms I grew up with (same hairdos). Some of the same hairdos survived through mid 80's with a lot of these moms. My wife's mom was sporting this look when I first met her parents back in 1982.
According to a Google Lens search and several sources, this was 1966, which seems about right.

Okay - This one was worthy and deserving of a little color restoration.
Didn't take much, but the lighting looks a tad better now.
Keep posting more like these please! The 60s thru the 80s were wonderful times for a lot of us.

I can remember cracking the plastic casing from pumping too much pressure
Maybe the 2nd worst day of my life
And I was in Houston. Everything was space related, even the Tang.

I remember pumping one up so much, when it came down and hit the street, the red part smashed into pieces...

Do any of y'all remember the larger version that looked kinda like a Saturn V rocket? The one shown here was supposed to reach about 100 feet while the larger one said on the box that it should reach 300 feet. (Yeah, I was spoiled. I had both of 'em.)

Dragnet was one of my favorite shows as a kid.
Sargent Joe Friday and Officer Bill Gannon. "Just the facts, mam"
When I was in high school and found out what quaaludes were, didn't take'em but did see them, I always wondered if the badge number 714 was chosen on purpose in reference to "ludes".

23-year-old Gioachino Rossini’s The Barber of Seville was first performed on 20 February 1816 in Rome under the title Almaviva, o sia L'inutile precauzione.
The premiere performance was a total disaster, with a number of accidents occurring onstage, and the audience jeered and hissed throughout the opera (some of the booing was organized by one of Rossini’s rivals, Giovanni Paisiello, who had already composed a version of the Barber of Seville).
Despite the initial reception, Rossini’s opera became popular, and remains one of the most performed operas in the world.
