WAS 49.95 NOW 29.95 Encased in each of these cufflinks is an authentic, special-issue U.S. postage stamp that commemorates iconic American figures and symbols. The cufflinks are handmade with 10 karat gold-plated backs, and the original postage stamps are carefully laid onto the surface and sealed in an epoxy to preserve the color and quality of each stamp for generations. Choose from two cancelled stamps, the 1947 DC-4 Skymaster or the 1958 Statue of Liberty, that may have cancellation marks and color variances from their travels, or mint-condition Mickey Mantle stamps, issued in 2006 as part of the Baseball Sluggers series to commemorate the Commerce Comet's storied career with the N.Y. Yankees. The Statue of Liberty was released to celebrate the 72nd anniversary of France's gift to the U.S. and the DC-4 Skymaster was the first U.S. Airmail coil stamp and the last to feature a corporate logo or product. Please specify Mickey Mantle, Statue of Liberty, or DC-4 Skymaster. (1 oz.).

This is the simplest portable GPS locating device available, ideal for finding your car after shopping, returning to a favorite spot on the beach, or returning to camp. Simply push a button to mark your current location and the device points the way back. Nearly the size of a drink coaster, the compact receiver fits easily on a keychain, in a pocket, or in a purse. Unlike typical GPS units that are highly complex, this one only has two buttons: one for power, another for setting your starting point and two other destinations. It uses an advanced GPS receiver chipset that provides a high degree of accuracy--within five yards--in urban canyons or heavily forested environments thanks to its superior Time To First Fix for locating and locking onto satellite signals. It counts down the distance (in yards, miles, meters, or kilometers) as you approach your starting point and its self-calibrating digital compass displays your heading in degrees and indicates direction with an easy-to-read arrow. Weather resistant. Includes lanyard. Two AAA batteries (required) provide up to 20 hours of operation. 3 1/2 Diam. x 1/2 D. (6 oz.).

This handheld light uses divergent laser beams to project thousands of harmless pinpoint green light dots up to 150' away on walls, ceilings, or floors, providing a dazzling array of light for use at parties. Rated as a Class II laser product, each beam produces less than 1 mw--less power than typical classroom laser pointers--yet the light's overall 5mw power and 160° spread produces enough light to illuminate large ballrooms. It easily fits in a pocket or purse, and there are no moving parts to replace. The high-diffraction-efficiency optical element used to create the beams has a 1,000-hour life span. Its CR123A battery provides up to eight hours of use. 4 L x 3/4 Diam. (5 oz.).

This wooden flute is designed for beginning players with no prior musical experience, and is made from 100% Spanish cedar, known for its density and the color variation of its grain, resulting in a unique instrument every time one is crafted. Meticulously hand-carved by craftsmen in southern Arizona, the flute is formed from a solid piece of cedar, a softwood that generates warm, clear tones. The Plains-style flute replicates the same traditional design elements of instruments created by ancient Mesoamerican cultures, evidenced by the use of two separate internal chambers--a wind chamber adjacent to the mouthpiece and a sound chamber, divided by a wooden fipple that gives the instrument its unique tonal qualities. It is tuned to the key of A in two octaves for play in the diatonic and chromatic scales. The finest cedar is selected, shaped, bored, hand-sanded and finished with a non-toxic hardening oil for durability and sound clarity. It has a leather strap that can be slid up and down the flute to cover the third hole, creating a five-holed flute (in pentatonic scale). The fetish is hand-carved into an artistic representation of a sparrow hawk. 19 L. (1 lb.).

Developed by Polaroid, inventors of the first instant film camera, this is the digital camera that instantly prints the images you capture. The camera's integrated printer produces 2 x 3 borderless color photographs without using any ink. The camera uses a patented paper embedded with colored dye crystals that are activated by thermal pulses as the paper passes through the printer, resulting in crisp photographs and rich hues without the hassle of ink cartridges. The photographs are smudge- and tear-proof, fade- and water-resistant, and peel off of the backing for display as stickers. The 5.0 megapixel camera has a 3 color LCD, and you can crop and resize images and add the date, file name, and borders to photographs at the touch of a button. The 4X digital zoom, red-eye removal, flash, and timer ensure optimal photographs in all conditions. Pictures can be saved on the integrated 16 MB memory or SD memory card (not included), or transferred to a PC or MAC computer. Prints 20 photographs after a full charge. Requires a 7-hour initial charge and a 3 1/2-hour charge thereafter. Includes USB cable, AC adapter, 10 sheets of paper, and wrist strap. 3 H x 4 3/4 W x 1 1/3 D. (10 oz.).

This is the board game that challenges young men to exhibit the skills deemed essential to proper boyhood since time immemorial: bug identification, code-breaking, star-gazing, riddle-solving, and more. Players compete individually or in a group to answer questions or complete activities in the time allotted, from performing a magic trick to using the included rope to tie a specific knot. As much a kit as a board game, it exposes boys to new activities such as how to identify bear tracks or the purpose of a bowline knot--then encourages them to keep practicing until they master the activities. For two to four players. Ages 8 and up. 2 3/4 H x 10 1/2 W x 10 1/2 L. (2 lbs.).

WAS 39.95 NOW 24.95 This rapid-fire game bolsters money-handling skills as players race to see who knows their cash the fastest. The computer challenges contestants in five different games, from adding up money to creating exact change. When a dollar amount appears on the dual LCD screens, players compete to make change precisely. Twin keypads of coin- and bill-shaped buttons reinforce currency recognition, while providing a playful interface. Each game keeps players on their toes by interjecting challenges such as no dimes or by requiring correct answers in the fewest number of moves. Full sound effects, music and vocals enhance the game show feel. All five games have three difficulty settings. The game can also be played by one person. Includes three AA batteries. Includes two headphone jacks for quieter play (headphones not included). Ages 6 to 11. 5 H x 11 W x 4 D. (2 1/4 lbs.).

This experimentation kit allows children to grow their own crystals using the same original formula employed by astronauts in space 30 years ago to grow perfect crystals in a zero-gravity environment. Prospective scientists can re-create these crystal formations using ten included crystal growing experiments, ranging from hexagonal quartz to isometric fluorite. In one week, nucleation occurs by which the provided seed crystals evolve from a solute to their final crystal lattice structure; experiments may be conducted repeatedly from the same growth medium. An included CD uses videos and animation to provide information about the International Space Station and crystal growth; requires PC for viewing. 17 H x 2 1/4 W x 11 1/2 D. (3 1/2 lbs.).

WAS 79.95 NOW 49.95 Winner of a 100 Best Toys award from Dr. Toy, this is the child's raceway with remote-controlled motorcycles modeled on the famous Ducati 999 Superbike--right down to authentic engine sounds. The bikes can race side-by-side on the grooved track, or they can go off-road for courses on the open floor. Designed for young hands, the infrared handlebar remote uses two simple buttons to send the bike backward or forward; when racing on the Grand Prix-style track, a twist of one of four railroad switch knobs can divert a bike into a pit stop or off the track altogether. Track accessories include lap counter, starting line, pit stop indicators, crash barriers, advertising boards, and crash tires, which can all be removed from the raceway to customize a kitchen-floor course. Requires eight AA batteries for bikes and remotes. Ages 2 and up. Made in Italy. 8 H x 25 W x 46 L. (10 lbs.).
