Re: Letraset
Wow, that was really quick! Okay, I got the message you sent from the website; now you can go ahead & follow the application link (which you may already have done before I even finish posting this reply)… it's not automated, it's just me, & it's quite late, so it may be tomorrow before you get your confirmation.
This is really great, because for the first time ever someone is actually showing people how to do this the right way round! Loads of people apply first without getting in touch, & we have to work out who they are & ask them if they really meant it… so full marks to you for getting it right.
Er… that makes it sound like we haven't many members; in fact, there are over 60 of us so far.

Re: Letraset
You should all visit the Society for the Preservation of Letraset Action Transfers at SPLAT — you won't believe in what detail we have this subject covered!
If you decide you want to join, though, read the instructions carefully. It's free, of course, but to protect the existing members we only let new people in if they tell us they want to join BEFORE they apply. IOW, if you just apply, you won't get in. Tell us you want to join first, & then apply, & you'll get in. We just need to be sure you're human, & not a spammer. Piece of cake! It sounds daft, but a lot of people don't seem to get it…
Anyway, if you're interested in any of these items, come & check us out. Particularly the one who remembers the four-armed astronauts from the 1965 Lunar Base Panorama… I want a word with you!

Re: Letraset
I had the 3 Star wars scenes that you could collect. If my memory serves me well they were Mos Eisley spaceport, the Death Star Hangar and the Rebel base on Yavin. There were also some freebies given away with Shreddies.

Re: Letraset
I remember a series of tranfers where you could recreate footballing scenes by sticking down tranfers of players onto a blank pitch.
The main problem though was that the tranfers never seemed to stick down evenly, leading to wrinkes & tears.

Re: Letraset
Loved the transfer sets. War ones and Star Wars ones were great.
But I also remember these Kevin Keegan ones. They were quite small, and for about 15-25p in newsagents, and folded out into the backdrop of Keven Keegan's greatest goals. You got a sheet of transfers containing about 7-8 players and a ball and then you did yer transfer stuff!!! Hurrah. I had all 8 (if memory serves, it was a series of eight).

The lenticular cards? where you moved them one way to show a different image, or movement?

Another thing I have not seen since childhood is those thick plastic cards with a striped texture..there never seemed to be a name for them in the 70's.
Now I know they are called Lenticular images.you remember them..as you moved the card,the image moved too. nowadays they use them for movie posters and advertising (the last one I saw was the Persil Happy Feet promo on bus shelters and the Ghost rider promo poster)..
They were always given away with cereals,etc..
Maybe they still are,but I don't buy cereal anymore ;(Last edited by sixtyten; 06-01-2007, 03:13.

I had a Return if the Jedi set, from a cereal box, maybe ready break, me and Momma were only talking about the glow in the old ready break ads today too. My kids have had similar stuff, but not as good as the ones we had as kids......same story again with most things/toys we had.
