I have this picture in my Trump collection. :heh Okay, this next guy is a musician who was very popular over the past 5+ decades. He's 71 these days. He's one of these people who doesn't want to allow his works to be used by Donald Trump. Posted Image |

I figured out the product (Baking soda) quickly but I couldn't make the connection between the product name and a chair at Harvard. I was working on it. So close! |

Inventor of the greatest toy you've ever seen. At least I thought so. My mom? Not so much. Made too much racket. Posted Image |

Well, I thought I'd find the robot under vintage tin space toys on pinterest (everything is on pinterest!). But it wasn't there. Okay - I started googling robot toys. This youtube commercial popped up pretty quick - it's cute: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_awi5nS7w8Y This is Robot Commando, by Ideal Toys. Give me a minute to see if I can find who the inventor was. :lol __________________________ https://vintages-antiques-collectibles.knoji.com/ideals-robot-commando-collectible-1960s-toy/ Marvin Glass also brought us "Rock 'em, Sock 'em Robots", "Operation", and "Mouse Trap." All really fun toys! This was a tough one, Scott - but a lot of fun! :heh Edited by barb43, January 2, 2017, 8:35 pm.

Excellent sleuthing! Marvin Glass is our guy. The "greatest toy you've ever seen" was another of his inventions, "Mr. Machine." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fgIm1mJCyRU |

This man is better known in history than I realized so might not be too tough. He's an American-born British physicist who bought his royal British title as has somewhat been and still is the custom for those so desiring. He worked in thermodynamics. Posted Image |

Okay, she's not Anne Frank, I gather. She must be from the same era, at least. Later: And there she was: Margot Frank. I had not known as much of the Frank family before reading the wiki article on them. Margot popped up in that, of course, so I looked for pictures of her. Their family is a sad story ... only their father survived. I knew that Anne didn't, but couldn't remember what happened to her. I read the Diary of Anne Frank a number of times going through school - probably 6th grade, 8th grade, and 9th or 10th grade. Anne and Margot both perished at Bergen-Belsen. :sigh Really was surprised at the number of articles online about young girls who kept diaries during WWII. One article is about fake diaries - I shouldn't be surprised, I suppose. :tsk Edited by barb43, January 7, 2017, 10:33 am.
