Etch-A-Sketch 

A drawing toy with a gray screen surrounded by a red plastic frame. There's 2 knobs, 1 at the lower right to move horizontally & 1 at the left to move vertically~a stylus displaces aluminum powder to create visual fun pictures. Really Fun! When I was a kid, my Mom accidentally stepped on my Etch-A-Sketch & the aluminum powder stuck to her shoe! She ended up throwing that pair of shoes in the trash & it taught me to take care where I placed my Etch-A-Sketch!
