Barrel Of Monkeys by Lakeside Toys

	Sam's Toybox Homepage

The Barrel Of Monkeys is a classic toy by Lakeside in the 1960s. Original copies like this one had the brown barrel with a paper band around it. The set consisted of twelve monkeys in three different colors although later versions (by Hasbro and/or Milton Bradley) had 16 monkeys, normally all the same color. Here is my original 1966 Barrel (item number 8312) as well as a Six Flags exclusive "Barrel of Taz" (dated 1997, no item number). The monkeys are still available through Amazon/Toys-R-Us or your local toy/department store. Also available is a way cool 3"x5" metal Barrel of Monkeys Belt Buckle.
