Feeling Retro

KEWL ...

Hi Zuzu.. Oh, personally, I wouldn't have had any idea about when they were retired since I only just made my first purchase in October 2010, and really didn't start collecting until Jan this year. I have found the TB gallery site exceptionally informative and actually printed out the whole retired section. I think I know what most of the TB beads are, but not all! I'm trying to make a complete reference catalog, and have learned quite a bit in the process. I missed out on the crane bead because I didn't know what I was seeing. [/quote]

Hi Z I do remember the thread where you mention, passing up the crane bead ..... ouch! I really feel
for you. I must admit the crane and any of the Beads of Prophecy would be tops on my wish list.
Do you use the Trollbead Universe site for information? Also Z I have and old Trollbead hand out from
2006 small pictures but lots of old beads and maybe good for reference I'd be happy to send it to you.
The Retro Kit was one of my first kits when I first starting collecting in my mind I though it was retired
shortly after I bought it, but I think I am getting it mixed up with the Designer Kit.

This looks great BG..it is very Mary Quant and yes I am old enough to remember owning the make up..black case with a white Daisy

Gorgeous! I should have bought whole kit.
