  1. I agree. There is a two way tie for me. The Easter chicks all grown is very authentic for the time period, now illegal to sell single baby chicks for Easter. Bunnies too.

    That hat definitely is a winner. I am absolutely sure there was a time and place that some women were flattered to wear it. I think they were called Bunnies.

  2. My favorites of this group are number 2 down by Brad Anderson (what an annoyance; poor Dad), number 5 by Cy Olsen (that poor lady visitor) and number 7 by Mace. The saleswoman actually IS right. I think she should give it her all and see if she can’t convince the customer to buy it. Why not?
