With all this talk about back to school, it’s hard not to reminisce about your own childhood days. From the baseball cards we traded with your friends to the next crazy toy you begged mom and dad to buy you, the items we had as kids carry a lot of nostalgia for the midcentury. We’ve rounded up some of our favorites from the midcentury, including some with contemporary twists, that will take you down memory lane.
