I got 49 out of 49. "Couldn't be any clearer if I was a buttonhook in the well water." Mayor Shinn said that in The Music Man.

Hadn't seen a Green Stamp in a long time. I've used or handled almost all of those items, except a skate key and that airplane ashtray.

Those were easy.  And I have about 3/4 of those things around the house.

49/49, and a lot of them I've never seen or used, just used simple logic to guess what they were...  ;D

49/49.
The one that I think was wrong was skate key. Maybe Skateboard Key. But not the skate key I recall. Also some items could have been anything electronic.

I think some of the examples were taken from search engine results.  That skateboard key was one example.  They try to put together good quizzes, but you can see when their feet clear the bottom of the pool.

I remember tightening and tightening those darned skates to try to get them to stay on while I tried to skate on the brick sidewalks in my neighborhood.  I tore a couple of soles from my shoes as well.

The skate key I remember is in the picture below. I think I still have one somewhere in the house?
