I remember them selling for a 1.25$ at the local drugstore. As this one is sprung and isn't mint, you probably shouldn't offer them more than fifty cents, Al.
Mint in box would be another story, a buck seventy five would be a fair offer.
Maybe you could swap them that faded out old Beatle wig you wear for it? Don't forget to remove the foil before if you do. You don't want them taking your foil to the local scrap yard to cash in for big money.

They got the name wrong. It's Ray Walston, not Watson

I used to love watching the antennas come up from Walston's head when I was kid.
Didn't "My Mother The Car" follow "My Favorite Martian" during it's run? Now there was a show. Jerry Van Dyke as the lead and Shirley Booth as the voice of the car. I guess NBC felt airing a knock-off of a show about a talking horse with something else unusual that talked would work? Eddites weren't taken in.
I've never really forgiven CBS for canceling "Mr. Ed" or "Green Acres", the latter probably the best TV comedy ever made.
If you'll excuse me I've got to run up to the state capital. I think I'll buy a couple of hot dogs from Big Joe Haney's stand, he's Eustice's cousin. Those Haney's are an influential bunch. Al's Mom was half-Haney on her mothers side. Big Joe got him into CalTech. The family wanted him to go to Cow Tech, but figured as long as they were rid of him it didn't matter. CalTech agreed to the deal on terms that they got Arnold Ziffle with him.
Arnold Ziffle, the first pig in space. You won't see his likes again. We residents of the Kangaroo State still mourn for him.

You just don't eat a fine pig like that all at once.
