As I was creating this set I was reminded of all the toys my brother used to play with as a little boy, and that I played with secretly! I've included all those fun things from his childhood: vintage Jacks (anyone remember them?), marbles, old bottlecaps, crayons, and an unusual blue wagon he used to haul dirt around in. That must have been boy thing. He and his friends would build tree forts and put up a sign warning girls to Keep Out (we usually didn't)! They would stuff their mouths full of Black Jack gum and play card games and checkers until they were called home for supper. When he was done playing for the day he always kept his favorite things in an old cigar box. I used to sneak into his room at night while he was sleeping and look at all his treasures, thinking how much more fun his toys were to play with than mine!
