A Nice Little Treasure

The other day, I was browsing through an antique toy store and came upon this nice little treasure – an official Hot Wheels carrying case. I had one of these when I was a kid. When I was growing up in the 70’s, Hot Wheels were very popular. There were very few boys who didn’t have at least a few Hot Wheels. Some, like me, had a lot of Hot Wheels. When a collection got too large to keep track of all the cars, it was time to buy a Hot Wheels carrying case. I think I even remember walking down to Kmart to get mine.

The antique store was charging 45 dollars for it so it was a little pricy. And there are some cheaper ones on Ebay. It was still nice to run into one of these. It brought back some good memories.
