1 out of 5 stars Blech!   August 19, 2010

I recently bought this for my grandmother who was born in the 30s and loved candy from the 40s, however, when I got it I was tempted to open the basket to eat the candy and decided that she was too old to eat it anyway. So, I opened it and ate it for her and it was absolutely disgusting. Blech! I will absolutely never buy candy from the 1940s again. How could they keep candy stored for 70 years and expect it NOT to give me diarrhea for 3 days!

i bought this for an older friend and she was sharing stories as she went thru all the candy. It was a yummy adventure for the both of us. and plenty left over :)

I bought this for my kid, so he could have original, never-seen candies in his advent calendar.
THe box is beautiful, the candy were just right as described, and since I live in Montevideo (Uruguay, South America), it goes to the company's credit that the box arrived perfectly, not a single candy crushed or damaged...WOW!!
Will certainly buy again from them, this time the 50s!!



1 out of 5 stars Overpriced, poor selection, stale product   December 2, 2009

I ordered this for my Dad for Christmas. While I knew he wouldn't get it in time, I didn't expect it to take 4 weeks. When it did arrive, I was really disappointed with the selection of candy....much of which you can still buy in most stores. In addition, some of the "chewable" items were like rocks. Fun idea...poor execution.
