About the only thing I can think of is Pingu, which I believe was shown on British TV and originally stems from Switzerland. In Holland we were really spoiled, having anything from the Clangers and Magic Roundabout to the Thunderbirds from the UK, and Batman and lots and lots more from the US. <br />Best -- PaulAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2156181044707591026.post-48004611979732057622015-11-10T08:13:43.093+00:002015-11-10T08:13:43.093+00:00Cheers Paul, I got a stack of Akira acetates from ...Cheers Paul, I got a stack of Akira acetates from the Memorabilia show about 10 years ago. As usual, I sold everything on my ebaying days except just one! I should have waited till it was voted top animation! As for the mole, yes! I know him. and yes, Mrs. Moonbase grew up with Der Sendung Mit Der Maus. The torch has been passed as its our Daughter's favourite cartoon! She has a picture of the Maus on her kitchen wall! That tradition of small characters appearing in between Kids TV shows - like the Mainzelmaunchen in Germany - never happened here. Not sure why but we weren't exposed to everything that Europe had to offer I don't think in the heyday of TV.WOODSYhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13456645970983569001noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2156181044707591026.post-40782659466166584342015-11-09T18:04:20.742+00:002015-11-09T18:04:20.742+00:00Cool acetate, Woodsy!

How on earth did you get hold of that?<br /><br />I have one with Krtek on it, the little mole from Czechoslovakia, which I got from a colleague who'd done a traineeship in the studios that made him. (Could be you know him, else ask Mrs Moonbase - the little chap used to be in the "Programme with the Mouse" in Germany and also Holland. Or see https://vimeo.com/15593194 as an example.)<br /><br />Best -- Paul<br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
