I was wondering if anyone could help me identify these items. They've been floating around in my box since I was a teenager.

Come on, that's the going prices for Camaros here in Joysey. Anyone interested?

Verne - those thingies look like something that would go onto the radio antennae - maybe like the old Union 76 plastic balls they'd give out at the gas station for advertising? Did they have any type of logo on them?

A small alien spaceship with a hole for an antenna?

Or two beads from your "Love Shack" van from 1970?

What do I win Verne? http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

Are they to wind up window-blind strings inside so you can get them up high and out of reach so little kids can't mess w/ them?.

They provided protection for your best marbles. You know, the ones you never lost a game with.

Dennis,
You were the one who sniffed out the answer in the first place. I was just trying to have some fun along with the 1982 ads from NJ's Want-Ad Press. Those little balls keep your treble hooks from tangling together in your tackle box.

That Lazy Ike has caught a lot of bass. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif
