I have a fairly good collection of aviation related toys, comics, games, etc - the kind of stuff we, our fathers and grandfathers grew up with. Some of it is currently on long-term loan to the SAAF Museum at AFB Zwartkop and displayed under the banner "So What Made YOU Interested In Aeroplanes?" - an exhibition devoted to showing the things we would have played with as kids and probably played a part in us choosing aviation as a career, hobby or pastime.
If anyone has old (i.e. pre-1980s and preferably pre-WW2) items lying around in boxes in garages etc that they would like to donate or sell please let me know.
ps - I am also building a number of model aircraft for this display from bits and pieces of Meccano I have accumulated over the years but am always looking for more, again if anyone has old parts lying around I would like to hear from you.
