Today in 1952 Hassenfeld Brothers (now Hasbro) ran the first ad targeting kids for their new toy, Mr Potato Head.
In the 1960's to make the toys safer and fall under new regulations, they sold plastic potatoes with the kit of facial features. Before that the face pieces used sharp metal post to push into real potatoes. Regulations who needs them
Anyway, how's your Thursday?
