Vintage Noddy...

(web pic)
Little Jenny Wren has been reminiscing about a toy pixie doll she had and lost as a child. She found an image of Happy in a Flickr group. My first Christmas present, as a baby, was a rubber Noddy doll. I thought I'd look on the web and see if there were any images. Sure enough I found the exact same doll.

I have always kept my Noddy doll around the place (he was in the study wardrobe, right behind my desk). I pulled him out, dusted him off and here he is!

This photo was taken on Christmas Day, 1964 - I have Noddy sitting in my lap. I honestly can't remember playing with him during my younger days but he is still with me 45 years later. Fun remembering the old days...

  1. It is so fun to look up old things. I have been having a ball looking up things from Nov.1937 for birthday month.
