Toysmith Original Silly Putty 104-48

Silly Putty has been around for 50 years now, and in the past half-century, it’s become an American toy classic. From its origins in a scientist’s laboratory in 1943 and its introduction to the world in 1950, to its addition to the Smithsonian Institution, the fun and colorful history of Silly Putty is one for the books! Silly Putty is a pretty unique substance. It stretches without breaking, yet it can be snapped off cleanly. It bounces higher than a rubber ball. It floats if you shape it in a certain way, yet sinks in others. It can pick up pencil marks from pages and comics from some newspapers. If you slam it with a hammer, it keeps it shape, yet if you push with light, even pressure, it will flatten with ease. Gravity has a slow, yet devastating effect on Silly Putty creations. Sold individually. Warning Choking Hazard! Contains small parts, not for children under 3.
