You interrupt a thoughtful and relevant thread about racism and the
Holocaust to discuss TOYS???

Thank God.

Seriously,  Rocky Mountain Motor Works always has a pretty good selection of
toys, mugs, t shirts, and posters in their catalog.  I think they're on the
web, but not sure.  I also think Ron Salmon has some relationship with them,
so you may want to contact him.
