Loft Property

Space Lines - well, what can I say! A 3D plastic multi-level game of naughts and crosses might just describe it's wonderment. I loved it circa 1969. The last word in futuristic play. Simple and spaced-up all in one move. Well maybe two! Three people could play at once! I had two bigger brothers so I never tasted the sweet pleasure of winning!

Later on, on my own,  I would savour the unique solitary experience that were Detecto Puzzles! Here's one I found in my attic - Murder Mountain from 1974. Read the story and solve the mystery by doing the puzzle. Work and play all in one box. Moral fibre. Puts hairs on your chest!
