I am looking for several toys from the early 1960's and late 50's.  I will 
list a few.  If you could provide an index to what's on those palets, I would 
sure appreciate it.  These are in order by date, going from late 50's to 
early 60's.  I'll include only 1957 through 1963 in this section.  Please 
note the year quoted means only the year the item was first produced.  In 
some cases, like with Ideal's Mouse Trap game, the game was produced for well 
over a decade.  So use the date stamp as only a reference to original 
production year.
  Farfel hand puppet, 1950s.  Farfel was the dog that did the Nestles ads
       in the late 50s, who would say "N-E-S-T-L-EEEEE-S.." (mouth snaps 
hut)
  Any "Jack in the Music Box's" with the clown, casper, popeye, flipper,
       or any other character (all made for years by Mattel beginning in 
958)
  "Leave It to Beaver Rocket to the Moon" game, Hasbro, 1959
  *Any* Beanle & Cecil stuff (would be 1959 and later)
  Frosty the Snowman Sno-cone machine, Hasbro, 1961
  Flintstones Playset, Marx, 1961-ish

  "Gaylord" battery operated, wired, basset hound dog, Ideal, 1962
  "Operation Moonbase Play Set", Marx, 1962

You're not likely to have these, as they fall outside the likely range of 
years of stuff you might have on those palets (assuming one is marked 1960 
like you said) but I thought I'd include them anyway in case anyone *else* 
out there may have some of these.
