This Week’s Rare Bit O’Swag:
Sooty and Sweep Jigsaw Puzzle
This was in a recent eBay auction and since I’m American, I had no idea there was such a thing as a Sooty or a Sweep. I am a bit more educated now. It was a popular kids show in the UK in the 70s. Sooty is the bear and Sweep is the dog. There is also a rare Marx made friction toy out there. And I even found a YouTube video of the show for you (sans scooter . . . sigh):

This scooter wall art was recently spotted at a “HomeGoods” store which I hear is part of the TJ Maxx/Marshalls chain stores here in the States. It’s priced at $19.99.
Thanks to Karen J. for this find.
Service will resume shortly
Dear Scooterswaggers,

Love,
Tracy
