| TOOTSIE TOY bud... Ever been thru your old boxes and come across something special you totally forgot about..?,,,,, i had this stoner experience....
I was looking for some camera gear mounts, when i noticed a box that i havent opened from my move ...from Cali.... not really sure what it said.... I looked closer at the dust covered cardboard box......it read.Misc..items...
i opened it up and it was my small collection of cameras.. 8mm..old 35mm...vintage cameras 16mm.... but... my eyes caught this vintage TOOTSIE TOY...race car.................i smiled..i flashed back...
to when i used to collect them...id headed to the swap meets in pasadena..garage sales..i went nuts collecting them...they were becoming harder to find because the trend was catching on..vintage tootsie toy car collectors sprang up all over the world...i looked at my collection and was lucky to have what i found for cheap....interesting how these little toys lost their place with the kids and found a place with men......lol...
i lost most of my collection during the el nino days....and this is the only one i have left..........it was in that dusty little box...
..i soon forgot what i was looking for because of the distraction..rolled a bud and just stared at it........smiled....
