I made this wooden stacking toy for toddler Steve about 50 years ago. It was an astounding flop. The post isn't sturdy enough to stand up to toddler enthusiasm. He thought it was boring. Well, I have always liked to make things, so I got a lot of fun out of that, but no one except me has ever thought this was interesting!
Here are all the pieces of the sandwich laid out individually.
Here it is stacked up without the top piece of bread. I still think it's cute.
And a boring top-down view with the top piece of bread.
This is available to anyone who wants to pick it up. To be really perfect, the bottom "plate" and the slices of bread need to be repainted. The light colors have gotten stained. I'd mail it to anyone who wants to pay for shipping- but it's probably not worth it. If you want it and I see you occasionally, let me know and I'll hold it for you. After all... it's been sitting around here in various places for 50 years. Another little while won't matter. No takers... it will be going to a donation place.
In other news: I made a casserole that is good, but not worth all the bother it was to make. Won't keep that recipe. Washed more dishes. Must have done something else. Hmm.
