As the sparkle of Christmas fades and the decorations are put away for another year, I can't resist one last blast from the Festive past. This is Mist-O-Matic by the brilliant Denys Fisher, which I got Xmas 1970.
I adored this toy and I was thrilled to find this set at a local Car Boot sale about 15 years ago. It brought back so many misty memories!
Essentially a paint spraying workshop for kids it allowed you to make cards for every season.
The booklet explained everything.
and my particular favourite, the Mist-O-Matic Christmas card! Happy days!
Did you have this set or a similar one readers?
My older sister had one in the early 1970s - a gŕeat toy.

DeleteThis was my favorite toy I think the first one only lasted a few months so mum and dad nought me another the following year. Wish they were still available my grandson would love one...and if I'm honest so would I.
