Where on earth can I get one of these?
I've tried google, ebay.es/co.uk/com/fr, shops and local markets etc in mallorca, but no luck. I guess they've all been thrown out by the holidaymakers that bought them in the 60s'/70's by now (or their kids!) It doesn't have to be a genuine one, a new one would be fine too...
If anyone finds one I'd be grateful for a heads-up.
Cheers

It's funny how the big hats and toys they sold to tourists in the 70s were Mexican rather than Spanish
I guess Franco's pals couldn't agree on what "Spanish" was

In between the Spanish 100 peseta and 1 euro shops had their day, before being swamped by Chinese bazaars, which have now very noticeably upped their prices now they virtually control the market.
