A recent (1980-90's?) premium, I've had the calf for ages as he came in a small scale 'job-lot', but his mum turned up in a bag from a charity shop last week, after I blogged here!
Here they are; not much to say, based on
Britains designs, made in 'Jersey' plastic and there may have been more? For years I thought it was just the calf!
Close-up of the marking. That's them done and ticked-off then! Given away with butter,
Anchor is (was?) a major brand here in the UK, probably Kraft or Dannone now!!...United Conglomerate Holdings Co.Ltd. part of the Shipping (Utrecht) & Mfg. Int. Corp......

No; 54mm, I used to think it was around 30mm as I only had the small one, but when the mother turned up the other day it became obvious they were a large 'family'...thing is...was there a Bull? Or a sibling calf?
Pity...I could have added them to my farmyard...:-
Did you get my mail??
Cheers

try again!
Found it in 'Junk' (what's the world trying to tell you!!) and have replied...H
Call me an idiot...Anchor itsn't a British comapany at all, whoever owns it...it's a New Zealand company that imports in to the UK....Doh!
I have these cows, I don't think there is another member(s) of the family, I think the promotion was just the mother and calf. Seem to remember my mum sent off for them when I was a toddler
Thanks Anon, certainly another one hasn't turned-up, and it's been a while now!
