SURPRISE!!
Mystery Boxes of stuff like what you see in the catalog. Maybe we had a little left but not enough to continue the listing. Maybe we only got a few as part of an odd lot. Maybe we just lost some, and just found them in our warehouse. You will get items which originally listed for at least $25.00 total in our catalog (or would have, if we had enough). You pick. The "electro-mechanical" box has things like motors, switches and components that are useful parts but want to be worked into something bigger. The "consumer" box has more ready-to-go type items, and things that don't have as technical a flavor, like bottles, toys, books and giant rubber bands. The fun is in the mystery and surprise. Perfect if you don't know what to give Aunt Maude and Uncle Ned, or if you can't decide how to bring your order up to the minimum. Every couple of months the contents will keep changing, so even if you have gotten a box before, feel free to order again! (Please note: Ordering multiple boxes at the same time will result in duplicate items.)

The Littlest Headlamp
Or book light. Or bike light. Or anyplace light. At 1-3/16" dia x 1-1/4" deep, it weighs approx nothing but has a very bright, single white LED with a collimating lens. It's in black plastic and mounted on a little spring clip which has an 11" long, adjustable elastic strap threaded through it. The light swivels 90° on the clip. Wear it around your head, on your wrist, arm or leg; clip it to a book, clipboard, a car or hat visor, the dog, a bike part, a tent flap. Runs on (2) coin batteries, included, and you tighten the lens holder to turn it on. Can you say "versatile?"

The American Handy Books
PC purists please move on to other items. These two books are exact reprints of 1882 and 1887 editions: “American Girls Handy Book”: How to amuse yourself and others, and “American Boys Handy Book”: What to do and how to do it. With 441 pp (Boys) and 474 pp (Girls) these books are absolutely crammed with ideas for activities, craft projects, information about nature and the world around us as well as charming Victoriana from the founders of boy and girl scouting. A real gift from Great Great Grandma’s attic. Both you and the kids will adore them and use them constantly, and we think members of both genders will enjoy both books in today’s world.

Field & Forest Guide
Titled "The Field and Forest Handy Book," this volume has been justifiably in print since 1906. Written by Daniel C. "Uncle Dan" Beard, the founder of the Sons of Daniel Boone and one of the founders of the BSA, it's a compendium of eternally relevant woodland lore, from building cabins, sleds, boats, and bridges to camping in swamps. The only part we skipped was on how to cook a muskrat. (We know a place that delivers.) Loaded with illustrations. In soft cover from David Godine's Nonpareil Books; 428 pp.
