We've just completed a repaint of our shop front and she's all gleaming again.  As you can see from the photo our customers can't wait to check out her new coat (even the dog looks impressed). We just need our new sign putting up and it's done.

Keeping shop fronts in a clean and well kept condition helps to beautify the street scene, which is important to the people that live here and visitors too.

Videos now iPhone compatible

on Wednesday, 01 September 2010.

Did we mention that we've installed some new techy stuff on our website? Well we have and it means that all our videos can now be played on the iPhone, ie, non-flash device. Check them out here on RetroWorld - http://www.retro36.com/retroworld

Ok, we'll have to come clean, we haven't gone through every product video yet and re-gigged the code. But we will do soon... promise! :-)

Groovy retro jigsaws for avid puzzlers!

on Wednesday, 01 September 2010.

1940s shopping basket jigsaw

Ok no waffling, we'll get straight into talking about these nostalgic jigsaw puzzles.

The first thing you notice is the groovy tin presentation box. You rarely find jigsaws that come in a tin box, so these are rather special. Secondly you'll note that the image to complete is an assortment of household goods from yesteryear. There are four in this particular 'shopping basket' range, which include: 1940s, 1950s, 1960s and 1970s.
Which is your favourite decade?
