You only asked guys? For shame. My favorite was my complete Annie Oakley outfit with hat, boots, gunbelt, gun and rifle. The gun and rifle shot caps. We kids got to take our guns to school on Fridays to play shootout in the playground and I was the fastest on the draw. 1956 was a good year for me.

Apparently you can only upload one picture at a time. I wanted to show you the kind of toys I had as a girl. Annie Oakley was my hero.

Hot Wheels cars and the Battery Powered version of the same called Sizzlers. You could run the track all through out the house, down stairs, etc. or make a Loop track that they could run on continuously. People collect them now I hear.
