For you delectation today we have a collection of childhood memories from the 50s. The View Master- a perennial favourite- comes with a 3D ‘Bambi in the Forest’ reel- featuring picture stills from the famous movie. The needlepoint features the famous Disney characters in a rubber dinghy and it’s in a delightful 50s frame. And the rocking clown makes that classic- slightly eerie- tinkling sound when it moves. 50s classics all!
Perfect for the contemporary child who has an interest in retro toys- or the nostalgic adult who misses them! A fabulous gift idea, this collection is for sale: $AUD80
I have a viewfinder – I’m not sure if I should get rid of it, as it seems to be quite the nostalgic item in vintage shops these days.
victoria- i would keep it (have a look at ebay and check out the prices these babies are going for!)
We had a view finder and a rocking clown (which was a little bit creepy). Why didn’t we keep them!!!!
ah if we had all just hung onto theses iconic toys- but who am i kidding? i never had them in the first place which is why i like them so much now! ~misplaced nostalgia~
Had some of this in my childhood :). Memories…
