Cuisenaire Rods
These were mine when I was a kid and my own children have used them, but now they can go to someone else's home. They are still able to bought today and are used in some schools. I've seen them retail for $37-$50 plus postage. In great condition from a smoke-free home.
A brief description from a website: "Cuisenaire rods are an extremely versatile and useful mathematical teaching aid. They can be used for the four operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication and division), but are also great for practising with fractions and proportional reasoning."
Pick up Manly.
