Dinky Toys: Perils of Memory
Got the Plymouth taxi June 23, 1962. Last day of second grade. Got the Bedford lorry 8th birthday. Traded Howie Wolfe down the street an ambulance for the Plymouth woody. Got the Dodge police car one winter for being sick with croup. The El Camino for a birthday, maybe 8th. Still going strong. These things were built.
