Christmas Wish List, ca. 1961

A Christmas wish list from my dad to his older sister and her family, probably written in 1961 or 1962 (when he was 9 or 10). I think it was very nice of him to provide prices for everything (I'm guessing his mother prompted him to do that), and I hope he got his Spoook Hand, tiny camera, or U.S. Army Dragon Turbo Jet Helicopter (only 98 cents!). Just click the letter for a larger version.

[And see page one of the letter here -- I had no idea he called my Aunt Charlotte, Chazz...]
