Remember the Cold War?
This is part of an advertisement from 1965. Note the spy theme. There's a camera, deceptively described as "Instant Photography." Yeah, right.
I love those two nifty anti-spy gadgets. There's the Secret Agent 0/0/9 - "Enemy aliens, spies and subversive characters, your days are numbered" - and the cunningly-devised Secret Sam Spy-Catching Kit, which comes with a camera, rifle attachment, pistol, silencer, periscope, and message missile. It's not hard to tell that the Cuban Missile Crisis happened three years before this advertisement was printed.
I guess I am feeling nostalgic today.

Not being quite the Younger Whipper-Snapper that yourself is, I actually remember ads like this. As a kid, I thought it would be so neat to have all that spy stuff.
how old are you again?
Old enough to know better than to answer that question.
good answer, so it's a good thing that i have such a good memory.
