HAYSTACK (large, oblong) Original polythene bay with Triang Spot-on card heading. // £14.00 Purchased. E. Sandown Park, 18/11/1995.', MERL Miscellaneous note – ‘Tri-ang Spot-on toys were produced in 1:42, because models were built to fit into "Cotswold" village style playsets. These rubber toy models were part of the Cotswold Village Series. Sold from 1959/60 to 1967. According to the Brighton Toy and Model Museum the production seems to have been the first result of Lines Brothers' takeover of the rubber moulding company Young and Fogg Rubber Co. Ltd. of Wimbledon in 1958.’
