Will's Sweeper

We see some lovely things from Dan dare and the eagle comic on moonbase, but here is something from the companion Girl comic. 

A Mettoy carpet sweeper, I think from the 1950's.

  1. Amazing that it's survived so well Will. Looks great. I often see Girl annuals in charity shops.

  2. So, we got spaceships, space pistols, walkies talkies etc, in the 50s and 60s, and the girls got household appliances.
    No wonder Germaine Greer did so well !

    1. Ha ha! Yep, the seeds of Women's Lib started here Mish! I have to say though, girls had lots of annuals like boys: Jackie, Bunty, Girl, Penelope and the slightly spooky one, Misty. I've bought and sold quite a few over the years and had a sneaky read!
