Toys for Christmas 1950 Reflect Sciences and Arts
The 1950 Toy Manufacturers of the U S A forecast reach of about 300 million dollars in annual toy sales for the past three years with a 40 percent rise in children of toy age. New lines emphasize atomic era themes, homemaking careers and crafts, with shortages possible due to material limits and a postwar baby boom. Cowboy gear, nurse outfits, new fire engines, and early balance bikes target ages from three to five, while cowgirl appeal and Western regalia grow among girls.
