Jaymo Posted August 11, 2020 Report Share Posted August 11, 2020 Blimey, I could only flick through my Mums Littlewoods catalogue and dream of those toys. With two older siblings in the 70’s, I tended to get somewhat diff offerings. A friends Dad worked for Palitoy and when we went round it was ‘magical’, don’t remember any jealousy either.

There was a Palitoy "retrospective" small exhibition in Coalville last year at the old factory. Very interesting it was too. http://www.choosecoalville.co.uk/2019/05/22/palitoy/ Edited August 11, 2020 by enfieldspares Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
