  • Oh Wow! We had that stovetop when I was a kid. I can’t believe the memories that it is bringing back. – It was one of my favourite toys. Thanks for sharing! :)

  • Alex's Old Man:

    Hey Pilgrim,

    Greg, Alix/Alex/Galexie Girl’s husband here. I wanted to thank you for the wonderful gift and your overall generosity. Your kindness is fetching. Thank again.

    You give the Web a good name, opposed to giving love a bad name.

    greg

    oh my gosh that stove! i must have had it at school or a baby sitter’s because that photo so vividly and instantly brought back a memory of pushing in the hot plate over and over to make the red pop up! not exactly the right thing to be teaching kids! haha. what an amazing store. i can’t believe i lived in melbourne for five years and never knew of it, and i used to work on queensbury street!
