Q: I've had this toy Pretzel-Jetzel Pretzel Factory for years. It came with pretzel mix, molds, utensils, paper holders, and a mustard container shaped like a man. The molds move through the "oven" on the conveyor belt, which is cranked by hand. A 100-watt bulb creates the heat. When was this toy made and what is it worth today?

A: Pretzel-Jetzel, "the jet-age pretzel making toy," was made by Transogram Company, Inc., of Sturgis, Michigan, in 1965. The box proclaims it “makes Zenzational Pretzels!” It was advertised on television and worked on the same principal as the Easy-Bake Oven, which was introduced by Kenner in 1963. The Pretzel-Jetzel occasionally shows up for sale online. One with all the parts sold recently for about $50.
