Post Cereal Flintstones Camera

For the past couple of Fridays Toys & Stuff has been covering the Corgi Flintstones vehicles which came out in the early 1980s and one would assume - rightly - that today we'd finish the third and final car in the series. But I caught a crummy head cold and haven't felt like doin' much this week. I just haven't gotten around to photographing the last car - sorry! So we're gonna look at a toy that I've already got pictures for, the Post Cereal Flintstones Camera, a kind of Stone Age Polaroid. It's a simple plastic box with a double-wound rubber band around the middle, to which is attached a folded picture of one of the Flintstones characters. Push the picture into the box, latch it, and push the lid open to see the picture pop out. It's a nifty little cereal box treat. Me & My Beautiful Wife Enjoys it .From The Berg's :)

The rubber band isn't shown here but the two halves of the picture need to be placed within the grooves on the top and bottom of the box
