The Dymo Label Maker
The Dymo Label Maker was around for a long time before the '70s, mostly for office and industrial use. But it was the mid '70s when the cheaper new handheld label makers and tape were widely available to the public. And it began a mini-craze......
The plastic handheld devices were addicting. People were labeling everything with them......
The Dymo Label Makers are still being made, but mostly with a handheld computer printer. You can still buy the embossing tape for the old label makers.......
Gatorgum
Remember this?
It did quench your thirst, if you call a gum that puts your saliva glands into hyperdrive "thirst quenching".
But it did taste good, like original lemon-lime Gatorade, but with a HEALTHY dose of sour enhancement........
