Unusual item a 1970’s tea towel from Heathfield Park in East Sussex, where the full size version of Lady Penelope’s FAB 1 Rolls Royce had resided on display since having been made to promote the feature film in the late sixties. Upon the parks closure to the general public this vehicle along with one of the Chitty Chitty Bang Bang cars made for the film remained here until being “rediscovered” in the late 90’s. This tea Towel has been autographed.
Lady Penelope comic had changed it’s name to just Penelope so the same same happened with the annual produced this year. It still featured Lady Penelope from Thunderbirds and lots of other content relating to films, television and music of the period.
