Teeny little unused flat packed boxes ...
Orlox - beef suet and rice flour ...
"A teaspoonful of 'ORLOX' in a glass of hot milk, taken at night,
will prevent and cure coughs and colds". Really??!
"Waste paper is a vital war raw material. Please save it!"
A lovely version of a classic party game ...
It's that poor old donkey again ...
The lovely big board measures ... 21" x 28".
And another pile of gorgeous old fabrics to sort through ...

Lovely finds! The boxes are funny, as there they are all these years later, all that potential waste paper and it was never used!! xx
I adore these. Looking at them made me happy!
How funny, like Kate I also purchased dozens of these little boxes many years ago! x
I love the Orlox boxes - never heard of it before, I think I'd suffer a cold though ;o)
Pin the tale game looks in beautiful condition - Great finds!
Love

Those boxes are so neat!! Such cute graphics on them too! LOVE your pretty pile of fabrics! Those are gorgeous!! xo Holly
The fabrics are very pretty, and I love the pin the tail on the donkey game. I remember mum giving me 'beef tea' and 'hot dripping' when I was a child, it was supposed to cure all ills – but it didn’t :-) I did and do like an Oxo cube in hot water with bread and butter on the side!)
Lots of loveliness here. The little boxes are cute and I love those fabrics. Bee xx
