Today is G.I. Joe’s birthday! Joe was introduced by Hasbro on this day back in 1964. G.I. Joe stood for “Government Issue Joe”. There were originally four figures launched; one for each branch of the Armed Forces.
I had a few G.I. Joe’s. I wish I still had them. One of my favorites was the Astronaut and Capsule.
I just did a quick search on eBay. There is one going for $200!
