I say that because of hazy memories of it sitting on top of my mothers' wardrobe back in the 80s and never been allowed to touch it. Then at some point it ended up in my brothers' hands who proceeded to scatter bits of it across his room when he was in his late teens. Is it worth me trying to ferret it out and see what pieces we have left? (It may be complete but scattered, or he may well have lost most of it ).Edited: Because I can't spell & Harami can
