Sarasota, Florida (May 4, 2004) Join us May 10th from 6-8pm for a groovy open house and launch party for the The Playmakers! We’ll mix food and fun at Bamboo, a great restuarant right off University Parkway and I-75 in Sarasota.
We’ll have plenty of copies of The Playmakers on hand for your persusal and with 312 pages and over 550 photographs of classic toys, dolls, games, trucks, cars, and playsets, you’ll appreciate the comfy chairs and couches that Bamboo has to offer! The books are $50 and $10 from every one we sell this night will be donated to Young Life, a wonderful, non-profit organization that provides mentoring to teenagers right here in Bradenton and Sarasota. It’s a great book and a great cause… but there’s more!

My very special guest for the evening will be non-other than the co-inventor of the Twister game and the Nerf ball, Reyn Guyer. Reyn will join me in signing copies of The Playmakers, personalizing the Twister and Nerf chapters for you. We will have cool door prizes throughout the evening including autographed books, Twister beach towels, Nerf hoop sets and the Creme de la Creme of the night, an original 1966 Twister game and an original 1969 Nerf ball, both autographed by Reyn! But there’s still more!

David Jones from Oldies 108 will be on hand to pump up the festivities with great tunes from the 1960s (in honor of these two classic ’60s playthings) and the chance to win even more groovy prizes. Don’t miss it!
Where can I find an original NERF Ball.
Any Ideas If you can get me one??
I’ve been searching for years.
Thank You in Advance.

I found mine (the one pictured on this site) on eBay. I think that’s your best bet, as I have not heard of many vintage Nerf collectors.
Good luck, and make sure you throw the ball in the house!
