The Original Lite-Brite Is Now A $200 Buy
Debuting in 1967, the Original Lite-Brite sold for just $10. Now you can get a 2000% return on that investment! It was a simpler time in 1967 and children didn’t need an iPad to be amused.
Lite-Brite features a lightbox with small, colored plastic pegs that illuminate when turned on. Kids could even create masterpieces by placing pegs on various included templates, immediately transforming themselves into artists. The original set included red, blue, orange, white, green, yellow, pink, and violet pegs.
