I got mine in the 80s. And let me tell you. It got all twisted and tangled up. I do not know how they advertised this so well. Broken down piece of... BLEEP! BUT it was fun!

According to Wikipedia, Slinky originated from work being done to create springs to stabilize sensitive instruments on Navy ships. An unofficial story that I heard (on "Car Talk") was that Slinkies were produced from coils of surplus piston ring metal for Jeeps.

Silly Putty was apparently derived from U.S. WWII-era attempts at creating a substitute for rubber (also from Wikipedia)...

I remember the Slinky box was full of warnings: Caution: Not for use in moving vehicle.
Caution: Do not press against your face.
And the instructions for "How to play with the Slinky in your hands" had three or four steps.
