Never leave your child in a hot car while you shop. Ronco has the perfect answer for you.

Very refreshing on the ride home as well.

That's actually a wonderful idea. After parking, leave junior with a .357 magnum so that he can watch the car for you as you shop.

@perrone1 OK Tony, you’ve gone too far on this one! You should be ashamed of yourself! The kid looks to be about 1 year old and 20 pounds max. Don’t you think that a .357 would have much too much recoil for him? I think that in any parking lot situation in the ‘50’s a .38 special would be just fine. Think next time!!

Are you fluffin' kitten me, right meow?
That kid was born for a .357 mag. Why just look at his steely eyes, those clinched lips, the death grip on the front bar of that seat. Of course handloaders would load between a .38 special and the .357 mag. same exact cartridge except the mag's case is about 1/8th inch longer. But let's get serious; one .357 mag going off is going to scare the pee out of some ne'er-do-well.

@perrone1 It would probably also blow out all of the windows and throw the kid right out of the carrier. Seriously though, when I first saw the title of the thread I thought for sure it would be about sleeping on the package shelf at 70mph.

...we could spend a full day discussing all the bizarre and dangerous child & pet devices, accessories, and contraptions marketed in the 20th century - simply astonishing. But of course, we're conditioned to judge everything by modern standards. Many, back then, where deemed practical, even useful. OMG, right? 😲 😲 😲
This will always be my best example of "insane childcare!"

What is the problem? The top is covered by wire mesh. Those quarter inch screws on the attaching rods should hold it up from dropping. If mother is concerned, add a few pillows at ground level.
