Thrift store score!

 Manly and I went on a thriftstore "hunting trip" for several items that we had on our list.. I am not sure how many things off our list we found but we got some awesome stuff!  Probably our favorite thing we found though was the duck.   The solid, adorable, German made, little pull duck that quacks and "waddles" and turns its head back and forth when you pull it.  


We need a name for it.. ideas??? 





And for you history people,  What does this tell us?
Yep, West Germany, which means that this toy was built some time while the Berlin Wall was up... roughly 1950-1990... its obviously held up ridiculously well!!  

The brand is Haba and is still a viable toy company in Germany which makes fabulous toys! They are still making this duck too!! New its $21-$33.. we paid $10 for it and I could not be more thrilled!

  2. The duck is awesome!!! How about, "The Mighty Duck!" Or, instead of "rubber duckie" it could be "Woody Duckie." It doesn't go as nice though...

    I like Bill!
