Ooh, I forgot about little_details, I think I'll have to try there.
I wouldn't usually worry about it if it truly was a little detail, but the trouble is that it isn't a common item, and it's actually *not* a little detail, since the whole fic is about the Christmas gifts they give to each other, and I have no clue if the thing I choose is actually something that both a) existed at some point, and b) would be affordable (but still expensive) to your average science teacher in 1962. I've googled every relevant search I could think of, but even modern prices for this thing are hard to find. I think it would be easier to just write something new than to worry about this one, quite honestly!
