Y is for Yes . . . I'm Clearing Odd's From Picasa Again!

Little Tykes polymer Little People - eat your hearts out! I Shot this back in July and when I found it I couldn't believe he was still around, almost certainly our first toy figure, he was one of a pair, and may have been preceded as THE first by an equally wooden stacking guardsman on a pole, but I think this came earlier?

When I found him in the garage he was time/sun-faded and mouldy, but a dip in that Barentine wood-treatment and he's almost back to his old self, maybe not quite as green ('army-man' green!) as I remember!

He was one of two, I seem to recall, one behind the other in a big chunk of wood shaped like a racing wedge, open-topped with four large wooden wheels, we loved it when we were very young (3-5 maybe?) and would push it round the house until we banged our heads on something and settled down to a quieter pastime for the afternoon, or . . . got a bollocking for ramming it into some 'so called' valuable piece of 'grown-ups' furniture!

I'll call him Guy, and he can go in the 'Unknown Wood & Other Materials' box. What do you mean "Where's the other shots?"; he's turned on a lathe - this is ALL the shots, his arse really is his elbow!
