Mickey Mouse Gas Mask

It’s important to keep kids feeling comfortable and happy, even when they need to watch out for poisonous gas clouds -or at least, that must be the theory behind this Mickey Mouse gas mask sold in WWII. Paranoia and consumerism sure make for an interesting combination.

    when i was a child growing up in Israel, we had 'bomb drills' at school - we all ran to the bomb shelter and had to put on gas masks. it freaked me out very very much - pretty traumatizing. though honestly, i highly doubt this mickey shaped gas mask would've helped much :-)

    That reminds me, I should throw out these gas masks I found in an abandoned Russian warehouse.

    Mickey looks a little cracked out. Maybe he inhaled some of the gas?
