"...I to remember going to the curzon cinema with my silver sixpence.you could buy a penny lolly inside and if you were lucky there would be a complimentary ticket for the next saturday matinee and if you were doubly lucky you could win a small price if they called your ticket number out, i remember going on stage one saturday and winning a toy town post office set. Who remembers our heroes in them days? there was hoppalong cassidy, gene aurtry,the cisco kid , and of cause everyone's favourite flash gordon.remember stomping our feet when the goodies came on the screen, and booing when we saw the baddies on the screen. i also remember tho victoria hotel with it's cobble stones at the front, there was also another picture house around the corner on higher road called the empress, or as we called it "the flea pit"." |

Just google "toy town post office" and I guarantee you will find stuff. It was a play set for kids to pretend like they were running a post office - it makes sense that some of them practiced on the backs of the baseball cards their dads gave them. |
