They are still in their original packaging. I feel a bit sad for them ( the ones in their packets), they should be liberated, but there is something historical about these guys. They could go into a museum.

goliwogs
I have a collection of goliwogs that I love. Some of them were bought by my Dad from the OK Bazaars (when you could still buy such a thing) for 99 cents.

I remember a golliwog lurking in your Dad's old toy room. Seemed bizarre even then.

Hi Mandy
ReplyDeleteI say FREE THE GOLIWOGS!!! If you saw Toy Story II you would agree how important it is to toys that they fulfill their purpose: Children's playthings. Let them be in the museum of your mind!! Free Goli. Love Sil
