Humpty Dumpty See-Saw


Whittaker Brothers Advert - The Coin Slot, January 1976

Manufactured by Whittaker Brothers, this see-saw was first shown at the Crompton Preview in October 1975.  It was a two-seater ride with Humpty Dumpty sitting in the middle.  Humpty had two faces, one side smiling, the other frowning.

The See-Saw mould was also used for Whittaker Brothers' Magic See-Saw, with a clown standing in the centre in place of Humpty Dumpty.
