FRANKENSTEIN ON THE MOORS

 We've been sorting piles of old photos at Moonbase.

As soon as I saw this I remembered what was above my head [I'm on the right]!


Its a Marx tinplate Frankenstein!


Just when I'd started out collecting toys I saw this Frankie in this Beck Hole pub bar in the Yorkshire Moors circa 1990.

Mulling it over once home I then wrote to the bar owners - a proper handwritten letter with an SAE! - and asked if they'd sell it.

They didn't but they served a great half-pint!

Have you ever seen an old toy in a pub or an office that you wanted readers?
