Look-in Star Wheel...

Another free gift item, I have shown this on my site previously, it's the Look-in Star Wheel and on the TV memorabilia site http://murdersville.co.uk, you can see all of the star photographs that are contained in the wheel, and all of the backs too with the information about said stars.  I will in the next few weeks make a downloadable file with examples of a lot of the gifts I have collected pictures of a lot of them, some of gifts are very memorable some a little on the useless side - like this...!!

Bionic Eye for sale...


If you remember the Bionic Eye free gift given in Look-in in 1976, then you may be interested to know that you can buy it on eBay.  For anyone who doesn't know what i'm talking about...



 

Basically, you put the thing to your eye, and through a series of fibres going across the aperture, it would appear is if you could see through whatever you were looking at.  What you were really getting was a double image.  It stands at 99p and has 7 days to go. Think I may up that a touch though...here is a link to the ad...
