Do you remember those flat cardbaord dollies you could cut out and stand up and you got clothes for them that you had to cut out and fix by tucking a little tab round the back of the doll?


Am I making sense? All the Post Offices and little odd shops sold them. Goldencup??


Bounty?

Oldspice I remember those cardboard dolls. Cut-out ones could also be found in girls annuals such as Bunty!


One of my favourite buys from the Post Office shop were the little coloured purses with patterns made from beads.


And of course, I collected smelly rubbers and found many at corner shops and the like!

Yes I remember them and strangely they were the only kind of dolls I ever played with - I found the conventional kind very boring.  I even had a cardboard Sindy wardrobe that all her cardboard cut-out clothes hung up in!  I was also quite fan of Blue Peter style dolls house furniture - generally made of matchboxes and split pins!

Remember those little tubs of mousse eg. Lovely? Well get a box and cut out a circle and drop the empty tub in. Hey presto, you have a sink for your Sindy house. Cherry_Ripe38741.5085763889

Is Bunty still going? We had a girl at school called Bunty. Poor girl.
