Smashing fun filled pictures Gunnar,
and well painted and presented.
There are many a story of these bubble gum toys,
and this happens to be one of them.
They all agreed that wearing a hot metal helmet was the best way of boiling ones head as hard as the average sized Egyptian brick. The General gave orders," Do not touch that large Lolly Pop Stick ! It could be booby-trapped."
Not noticing it before they looked up upon such a thing most of them had missed.
Finally...
___ "My word! Where do lolly pop stick trees grow? One feeble minded Roman asked.
They all reasoned upon that question by rolling it about in their rather hard boiled heads, because quite often is the case questions of mystifying perplexity does require it even when coming from Nit Whit.
Nit Whit ,the Legionnaire from The Lucky 13th, feeling rather cool that none could answer it, finally admitted he had dreamed of them growing next to a forest of Tongue & Grove trees ,but knew not where this land of U S A was.___ Needless to say really he was posted to be the last man of `Drag ', choking upon the dust kicked up by his highly intelligent betters.
This reminded him greatly of his dream of the great cattle drives in that far off land already mentioned.
"Gotta keep em moving on, ta cool water." Yes Nit Whit was sleep walking again.
Gunnar, i love the pointed background too. BB
