| I was in
Bexhill Museum recently when
something caught my eye in their
shop. It was a packet of assorted
mid-20th century replica paper
artefacts. I finished up buying
two different bundles. Each of
them contained a Daily Mail I-Spy
Book, "At the Seaside"
and "On a Railway
Journey" which would have
cost six old pence (or two and a
half pence today). |

| In my late
primary school years, my friends
and I were devotees of the I-Spy
Books. After, I reached the I-Spy
points target, a suitable
respectable person hopefully
signed off my endeavours. I sent
the book into the Daily Mail who
stamped it and returned it with a
coloured headband feather. You
were then expected to attach your
feather to your I-Spy headband!
Somehow, I can not imagine todays
10 year olds demanding a
renaissance from the Daily Mail
or other source! |

have scanned below the whole
I-Spy "On a railway
Journey". Enjoy! |
