    This is for the older set: What was the coolest prize (toy) you ever got in a Cracker Jack Box?

    about 49 years ago, I got a plastic (assembly required)toy crank telephone. I was about an inch big and had spokes that made noise when you cranked the handle. That and rings I remember the best.

    I remember being the envy of my brothers because I got a paratrooper with a parachute that worked and you could throw the guy from anywhere and he'd come floating down...it was so cool...

    I have a hot dog whistle ... it is very cool.  So cool, I still have a hot dog whistle.  Did I mention how cool it is?  It is very cool.

    Ha hahahaha! I was out last night at a Gala where the music was an ABBA cover band. What a hoot!

    My favorite was a magnifying glass. I watched ants with it.

    I found Meat Loaf driving a Coup Deville at the bottom of a Cracker Jack box -- by the way what the blazers is a Cracker Jack box?

    now i know, thanks Colleen.

    I got a magnifying glass, a whistle, several charm bracelet items. The magnifying glass  was my favorite toy as it aroused my interest in looking at small things. I saved my money and bought a  4 inch glass lens for $3.00. and a microscope was under the Christmas tree later that year. When I was seven I made a radio, electromagnets, several radio transmitters and spent too much time in libraries to have much of a kids life. I was reading college textbooks by the time I was ten and found school, in my age group, to be a boring waste of time.
