... to our February 2016 Newsletter. We are delighted to have tracked down the Assassin's Teapot; Tim has had one in his collection for a while, and we wanted to find a source, which we have managed to do. And on the drinking theme, we have the civilised glass, which is a different take on the Pythagoras Mug. We also have two examples of folded page art.
In the Toy Museum, Tim explores unusual stamps, toys made from leather, and the amazing Atomic Trampoline!
And finally a couple of links from the web exploring those retro objects, vinyl records. In one case an amazing way of cleaning an old record, and in the other, time lapse through an electron microscope, as the needle moves along the groove.
Tim is just back from the New York Toy Fair, so we should have some new goodies to share with you very soon!
Regards
Hendrik Ball
