Mickey Mouse Gas Masks

Post by Mupsy90 » Jun Sun 23, 2013 8:25 pm

A friend of mine posted this link on facebook about gas masks that were designed by Walt Disney to look like Mickey Mouse. These were invented during world war II for children (although they never used them). I think it's pretty cool/interesting (also creepy). Apparently you can see them in museums around the country. Here's the link if anyone wants to check it out!
