i go to some estate sales when they are close by, and i have bought jarts twice for $5.00 then sold them later for $50.00. you cannot sell them on ebay either

 

[5horsebriggs]

didn't no what jarts were so i looked it up and this came up http://barefootgentile.files.wordpress.com/2013/07/jarts.jpg were they really that dangerous?

 

[catfishman]

basically missiles coming at you, if you were paying attention no problem, probably to many druks playing jarts, or careless kids

 

[5horsebriggs]

oh were they sharp?

oh were they sharp?

Not sharp but heavy we used to see how high we could throw them then run away lol

 

[catfishman]

they werent sharp but the way they were made, with the weight above the tip i believe made them dangerous for some people.

Well my best fun times were in the 1950's Back yard camp outs, Family vacations to Yosemite and Sequoia national parks. Camping trip down in San Felipi, Baja Mexico and going fishing. Into the 1960's visiting Pacific Ocean Park and the big free concerts with the Beach Boys , Jan & Dean , Everly Brothers and a huge crowd of people. And $0.15
Derweinersnitzle hot dogs, Mustard, Krout, Chilli all $0.15 , Vernors ginger ale

I threw one straight up in the air and it came down and went right through the hood of my dads Pontiac bonniville, yes they were sharp. Imagine taking one to head the same way. Too many people got hurt and they were removed from the market.
