hilp4 10 #1 Posted August 4, 2020 Does anyone remember the name of the old Wall’s lollies that we’re triangle shaped and about eight inches long, and came in a cardboard push up cover. Not Jubbleys, they were much chunkier. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Don't recall the name of the lollies but remember that Wall's had salesmen-1950's ?-on bicycles with a big wooden container over the front wheel with a slogan 'Stop Me and Buy One' on the front of the big box, at least in the Shirecliffe area.

Organgrinder 1,946 #4 Posted August 4, 2020 (edited) Don't know whether they were Walls or not, but the ones we used to buy in the 1940's were called Joysticks. Edited August 5, 2020 by Organgrinder mis-typing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

That takes me back 65 years. I was playing with my pals among the rows of pitch pine telegraph poles that were laid out on Olive Grove Road when one of those blokes appeared. We didn’t have any money so the sadist encouraged us to put our hands in the box and touch the dry ice. I don’t recommend it, lol.

I think you're correct , I seem to vaguely remember the was a centre line on the Joysticks. I also think it said on the cardboard holder " For children up to 90" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

DUFFEMS 56 #11 Posted August 7, 2020 The triangular lollies were called "joysticks" (shaped like a Toblerone) in a cardboard cover, you pushed them up to eat them. The lollies which had a line down the centre had 2 sticks on the bottom so they could be broken in half if you couldn't afford a whole one. At Carfield School we could buy the double lollies at lunch time, a whole lolly was 3d, half was 1penny ha'penny!
