RIP to a Chicago legend you’ve never heard of.
Burt Meyer, Chicago toymaker behind classics like Lite-Brite, Rock ’Em Sock ’Em Robots, has died at 99
Mainly working for Marvin Glass & Associates, he contributed to Chicago becoming a vibrant center of toy design. In an age before video games, he also helped bring the world Mouse Trap.
