Not much this morning at the local car boot sale but I was pleased with the small catch I got for £3.
Picked up a handful of old die-casts for jazzing up including a nice 1979 Hot Wheels Stingray.
Find of the morning was the Empire made novelty torch blister carded set by Salco. I had one as a kid! Did you?
Anything here you like?
I really like the Salco novelty torch blister card. A fine mint carded, Empire made, stunner. That's a very cool car boot find, Woodsy!
ReplyDeleteHome run with that Salco set, congrats Woodsy!
ReplyDeleteThanks guys! I sent the Missus in to negotiate and the seller asked for £1 straight away! I couldn't believe it! I had a monster torch set as a kid too I think.
ReplyDeleteI like the steam roller and the tanker truck.I had a whole construction crew of Superfasts as a kid,and they both were part of it
ReplyDeleteI had a similar clown torch, although I think mine was slightly different ? It only had the clown head. It might have come in a box. Not sure after all these years - probably at least 50 years ago.
ReplyDeleteToy companies knew kids loved torches. Great fun. As for die casts they are our childhood.
