Big Fun

It all began in the summer of 1982 with my visit to Chicago and walking into a wonderland of a store called Goodies. I remember telling the owner that I had to sit down because I felt too nice. You have to understand what it was like to go back fifty years and see toys in the original splendor amongst a bunch of unque and other pop culture items. The owner, Ted Frankel, would become a dear friend, a mentor, and a person whom I would like to be when I grow up. Which we know will never happen. At least the growing up part.
