ANZinSpace Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 Came across this ad for the Z-106 saucer in the Courier Mail newspaper dated 8th December 1954. It matches well the image in the Alphadrome database - Flying Saucer Z-106 - Masudaya . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fineas J. Whoopie Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 Great find Anz! Even earlier than I thought. Interesting use of the term "self winding" for a friction toy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian.. Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 Excellent info! I wish we had access to newspapers half as good as that Australian archive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ANZinSpace Posted January 11, 2011 Author Share Posted January 11, 2011 Yes its definitely been a real blessing in my research on Space toys in Australia. The other things I like about it is the fact they're constantly adding new newspapers and they allow visitors to correct the scanned text, so over time the searches should get easier and more accurate.
