I shared a picture today on Twitter that I took last year in the Victoria and Albert Musuem of Childhood in London. Prompted to do a little more research this evening I discovered I was plain wrong on 2 counts:
- not 1970s – 1968
- not plastic – giant paper bags
Better than this 1970s health and safety nightmare though. Dress up by wearing a plastic bag on your head. pic.twitter.com/PMHWHxNM4t
