Just watched it, very interesting. The shot from Canada of a device like a small tracked carrier towing a two-seater skimobile was unusual, although I probably have the terms wrong. This must have been before they put a motor directly into the ski unit. Are these still used in snow country ? There have been a few die-cast toy ski-mobiles made.
You should have maintained Radio Silence . . . Christmas in April? You might as well have taken a hammer to a mirror while standing under a ladder with a black cat in your back-pocket humming 'We Three Kings'!

ReplyDeleteIt is interesting isnt it Paul. Britosh Pathe is amazing for old toys.
