We shall overcome--very moving she gets totally saturated with the song, even at the end as she walks from the mic the power of her voice is still overwhelming. This song was a staple of the civil rights movement, Mahalia worked closely with Dr. Martin Luther King. She also sang Precious Lord at his funeral in 1968

Rare early 60s tv commercial for Mattel's Tommy Burst submachine gun detective set. A Tommy Burst in excellent condition will bring at least $200 on eBay. This was my favorite toy of all time. Load in some fresh caps, pull the bolt back, and it made a God-awful noise as it produced a small cloud of smoke around the barrel tip. It was fantastic!!!
