Happy days indeed

Sadly, I kept none of my childhood figures and toys :-( ... but I did keep all my books and posters, plus a ruler and pencil (see https://starwarsforum.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=29936), so it's not all bad news . On that basis therefore, this is the single oldest piece in my collection from 1978, when I was bought it:

And although not the oldest thing in my collection, this deserves an honourable mention as it's nearly as old and was probably my most read childhood book!
