A friend sent this link to a nostalgic view of the fabulous nineteen-fifties.

| Did you know?… Mr. Potato Head was invented in 1949 and sold to the public 3 years later. Mr. Potato Head was the first toy advertised on television. The toy was originally used with real potatoes. The government put a halt to that when complaints of rotting potatoes became a safety issue. |
