Has anyone ever actually seen what one of these was supposed to be? Surely they didn't legit just mail you a damn monkey.

Things were VERY different in the 60s, so i can see them selling monkeys through the mail.

I'm pretty sure they sent real squirrel monkeys. I've read stories about it, and I saw an interview where Jay Leno claimed he had one as a kid. This website has one guy's account of when he bought one, it's pretty interesting: www.comicbookresources.com/?page=article&id=18236

Well, if that is anything to go by, the kids who ordered these monkeys were probably bitten to death as soon as they got them. Reading that kinda makes me wish I had a monkey sidekick I could dress up in a little Misfits shirt and train to post on this forum on my behalf. After a few weeks he'd be a better poster than I ever was.
