I had some unused original wrappers a couple of years ago. Had them up in the BST for a few dollars but got no interest.

made in Endicott
 
or nearby Binghamton where I went to college. I've sold the box they came in twice which repeats the great colors and graphics. I recall seeing a B/W advertisement somewhere. May have been produced into the 80's. Wonder if any of the nostalgia candy places carry them? Neat ancillary items. Tasted like Turkish Taffy.

hmmm - didn't see the bar codes :-) In any event I always thought of them as a 50's/60's origination. Certainly I remember there was no zip code.

Still available, or perhaps available again.

I have seen these available in old-time/vintage candy shops - as recently as last week in Dallas and last month in Scottsdale, Ariz.

I wondered if they were remakes of a candy from years ago, and if so, are there any ads available.

I remember eating those as a kid in the 70's. Pretty tasty too.
