Do you remember "Mike Mulligan and His Steam Shovel"? Here's some trivia for you. What was the steam shovel's name?

Does anyone remember a toy army tank called "battling betsy"? I think it was remote controlled by wire, and battery powered. and kinda big. Ive also found lots of my old toys on ebay.

So you remember it?? It's not my imagination?
I really wanted both of those, but as they say, that was long ago and far far away.
I do remember the tank, as a youngster I went to visit an acquaintance of my father and his son had one. It was the size of a pedal car.

One of my favorite toys was Kenner's "Girder and Panel" and the related bridge making sets. You had these polystyrene girders that interlocked and exterior panels that clipped onto them. This would create skyscrapers. The bridge set allowed you to make ramps into the buildings, IIRC as well as elevated roadways.
Guess that what lead me to social work as a career!
