They're printed on heavy laminated 8-1/2" x 11" stock folded to a pocket-sized 4-1/4" x 5-1/2". The series includes how to cast for and trigger bass; and how to work with minnow rigs -- which is always a plus. Original retail price of each was $4.95.

Once upon a schoolmarm, chalk was the medium of choice for illustrating lessons. “Chalk talks,” remember? (OK, ask your grannie.) Return with us to those pre-Ted, pre-Power Point, pre-dry erase days and get this pack of a dozen 3/8” dia x 3-1/8” long sticks of soft, low dust, “premium ivory” chalk (although the manufacturer chose to call this shade "ivory" we think it is more of a yellowish hue, but hey, color names are pretty arbitrary, right? Lookin' at you Taupe). It is however a pretty and highly visible color on a blackboard.

…when you crank up this 13-1/4" tall, hand-cranked Wimshurst generator. They were the toast of the 19th Century, and remained the hottest thing around, electrostatically speaking, until Bobby Van de Graaf came along. This one works like a top, zapping sparks to a fare-thee-well with very little cranking. It's mighty pretty too, in acrylic, white and silver, and will dress up a dull physics or electronics lab.

Let’s say your old pencil case has seen better days, or you’ve added pens to the collection and you now need a second case. Good luck finding a cooler one than this one. Made of crushable black polyester, it has a large clear vinyl window on top and (the best part) a bridged double-zipper. That’s two zipper pulls moving as one, courtesy of the black strap connecting them. Nice action on the zippers, too. Case measures approx 8-1/2” x 6” x 2”, and it’s not partial to pencils. Fill it with craft supplies, prescription bottles, toiletries, batteries, rubber bands or just about anything you can pull from your junk drawer.

Call them the Founding Replicas and display them in the classroom, whether at home or in school. The U.S. Constitution is 18-1/2" x 12-1/2" and the Bill of Rights is 15-5/8" x 13-5/8", both on realistic "antiqued vellum." These are nice replicas, but much reduced in size, the Constitution in particular will require magnification for reading. Our each includes both documents.
