worked in the factory that made most, if not all of those sticks. If you look on them, in tiny print, you should see Spir-It, Inc. She worked there for something like 30 years, molding those very swizzle sticks.

The sad part of the story is that she used to bring home a few of every new design, and we had a big collection of them. The Flamingo and Circus Circus sticks were among them. I used to play with them as a kid. Anyway, when my empty-nester parents moved, they threw them all out.

sigh.

Great site, Terry!
