Christmas 1965: Texaco Toy Fire Chief Helmet

Posted by charles

Even at six years old I knew how to impress the young ladies, use funny hats and technology. I'm sporting the Texaco Toy Fire Chief Eagle Helmet with a working microphone and spreaker. You could buy these at Texaco Gas Stations back in the mid-sixties.

Texaco's slogan: "You can trust your car to the man who wears the star"
