Of course, the ad was from 1952 and the glorious prices tempered by my experience working at High-Low for less than a buck an hour. <br /><br />There's a canvas collapsible version of the red wagon that I noticed a few people using at Taste of Chicago. Perfect for my daughter and her 2 little boys, if it's as sturdy as it looks.<br /><br />john<br />tatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10088632798195131329noreply@blogger.com
