Diamond Bar, California, Christmas Day 1964. My nephew Jimmy got a G.I. Joe. I got almost all of him in the frame. Not Kodachrome, unfortunately, but some cheap department store off-brand slide film. View full size.
Neato! I got the Air Force version (with the orange flight suit) of G.I.Joe for Christmas that year. The very first generation. Probably very collectible now. Parents at the time were so nervous giving boys "dolls" to play with. Hence the term "action figure" had to be invented. Hmmm....I grew up straight.
I used to have the game Nibbles & Bites when I was a kid! And look! A cool tinsel tree!
