I liked reading the money goes to charity. Thank you for sharing that with us. Kudos to the Walton's stars! I wouldn't care which charity it was and would gladly pay their price then. We have quite a few Walton's items and none of them are autographed. It would have been nice to bring a couple of them to be autographed this year, especially by Michael Learned. Our treasured lunch box for sure!! If the money was indeed going to charity, they should have charged a lot more -- now, that would have made sense to me !! ... Your lunchbox, et al., will be there with you next year ! Jeri....Love that lunchbox more than anything. It's my favorite Walton collectible of all. I had to chuckle to your reference to "et al" because I don't even know what all my hubby has stashed away over the years in terms of Walton's collectibles. I keep subtly suggesting we need to downsize at this point in our lives but I think I'm just hearing myself babble. I ran across boxes of the 'Walton's Playset' and 'Walton's Farmhouse' downstairs the other day that I didn't realize he even had. Boys and their toys.....

Someone had a Waltons lunchbox at the reunion and Michael Learned was autographing it.

Oh, they are that, indeed. These two playsets would have given boys and girls hours of fun putting them together and playing with them. I'm in the clean-it-out mode, downsize mindset right now and my better half isn't. How's that working for me, you ask? Well, not too well.

I lost the chance, doggone it! (Boo, Hoo!)

Hi Jan, I have one of those too, and I actually took it to school each day in SIXTH grade. I was such a devoted fan, still am, that I didn't care what the macho boys said about it, and I did receive quite a bit of ribbing. HA!
