Flowerpot Men and Woodentops Annual

Description: Scarce annual featuring Bill and Ben: The Flowerpot Men, and the lesser-known Woodentops – both from the 1950s Watch With Mother television programme.
Contents include 6 short stories; puzzles (unsolved); five pictures to paint (two have been coloured in using pencils – the other three are untouched); and a double-spread game called "Bill and Ben's Pot Race". Also includes an article on dolls through history (with reproductions of those on display at the V&A in London), plus a further two about pets and flowers.

Beautifully illustrated in full colour throughout.
