Saw them many times on school field trips and other social outings. I never got a Ladmo bag though :-(

being interrupted due to Pres. Kennedy's funeral. They were a great part of my childhood and like you, I never got the Ladmo bag.

I didn't move to AZ till the mid 70s so I missed all the cool music stuff they did in the 60s w/ Mike Condello and Hub Kapp and all that. What a memory to keep- I won't say it was a good one, but it is one of those "Where were you when's"
