Lipton's Lame Wolf

Arto picked this Italian puffy sticker up.

The Lame Wolf.

It's Italian.

For Lipton, presumably the tea brand.

Anyone come across these before?

Message From Looey:

Hi Woodsy,

I fed your Lipton Lame Wolf into Google Lens and it spat out this reply with no references.

I'd almost forgotten puffy stickers!

Back to scanning puppet faces!

Looey,

I certainly don't want to ignite the 2025/2065 dating argument. But the entry about Lady Penelope gives the impression [at least to me] that by 2065, she was elderly when offered the World Senate post.

So, that would suggest the 2025 date for the Thunderbirds stories. At least from the diary.

I also remember a time travel story in TV21 when some of the boys, including Jeff, go forward to 2078, but age ten years as a side effect. Which suggests the 2060s timeline, which Gerry Anderson advocated.

Hello Woodsy

Yesterday we went to the Norman Rockwell Museum in Stockbridge, Massachusetts to see an exhibit of illustration celebrating the USA's 250th birthday.

Here are two pictures that may be of interest to Moonbase readers.

Bill Ev's Letts TV21 Diary 1

Hi Woodsy

Here are two pictures from the Letts TV21 Diary. It amazed me that I was even able to get a copy, let alone one in pristine condition. I guess I was lucky...

Here are two key pictures from the diary.

One of Lady Penelope, have a read of her biog. Plus, the Armistice between humanity and the Mysterons.

Hope you like these....
