Fellow space toy enthusiast Terry recently spotted these fab TELSALDA Train Ferry Boat and Aircraft carrier toys (above) and it got me thinking about the relationship of the brand and the T in a Circle logo found on some Hong Kong SWORD toys. Having scoured the net I can find only 2 Telsalda logo's, a white "handwritten" one (top picture) and a more stylised name band in front of a what looks like an golden V (?) (bottom 2 pictures). TELSADA is also a misspelling of the correct name, TELSALDA, and like me, many collectors make this easy error. There is only one reference to a T for Telsalda that I have found and this has been covered before on t'blog but I still reckon it's a red herring. Telsalda is a brand in its own right and not T in a Circle, which is a completely different brand. Views welcomed!
