Special Projects: Wacky Ideas

Irwin created games and art projects for his two sons as a way to keep them occupied. They would walk down to the toy store on Broadway to play a game called “Who can point out...”. Joshua and David would then look for the chosen item in the window, and whomever was the first to point it out would win. The game also seemed a good way to keep the kids busy so they wouldn't ask to go inside to buy something.

Some of the projects presented here came from those days. A few others were entrepreneurial ideas for games or toys that were never commercially produced.
