Remember this blast from the past? This thing fuckin rocked! A friend over at shape + colour reminded me of this one day, and then I found one online that said boobies – and then it met my blog. I had the yellow one, my sister had the red one and I believe they were sold in the great garage sale of ’88 – like so many other treasures, the thing was probably sold for 50 cents or 10 rubles depending on the fluctuation of the Chinese Yen. I miss that mechanical man that would sound out whatever you spelled – remember the one who sounded like he had throat cancer and had to put a microphone up to his throat to speak? No? Well, your parents didn’t love you…
