FROM THE WOODSY TOY CABINET

Cheap but wonderful Deep Dea Diver
One of my all time faves as a kid and now - above and below - the bump'n'go Desert Patrol Jeep, one of my big 3 tin toys as a nipper in the 60's.
Found at a Car Boot in the early 1990's - Space Kidettes Jigsaw - I loved the TV cartoon I just had to keep hold of this!
And a similar Car Boot treasure, 5 mint Whitman Fantastic Four jigsaws from the 1970's. When I bought them the seller said that his wife had removed the cellophane wrapping from them all the night before to make them look better! Why oh why would she do that!

  2. Toys can sometimes seem to consume every area of our home and sometimes, there’s just not enough space. Don’t forget about those often-overlooked areas under the bed and over the door.
