Your Alice suspenders are also too modern - they should be "H type" suspenders. But a good start.

Have got to say I am a bit disappointed there - the word "penis" was used in your post without any referrence to the "man-sized" condoms in the photo! :lol: :P :D :twisted:

Mr Ben was my favourite cartoon as a small child - I guess it must have rubbed off! :) (Could have been worse - it could have been Rainbow! :mrgreen: )

I just find the more unusual roles more appealing (how many 506/101 do you see etc) And just like many on this forum strive to great lengths to get everything as authentic as possible (sometimes not enough though), I do the same with this stuff. Some of it is a lot easier to get than wwii stuff - some of it is a hell of a lot harder (unissued early 1980s NBC stuff - who in their right mind has kept any of that! :lol: Good job I am not in my right mind! :mrgreen: )

Have plenty of other "impressions" to put up when I get round to it (even SS!)
