Summary

Pathe synopsis: Another colourful, but less noisy, display, is the Brighton Toy Fair, where one can see what is new in the world of make-believe: model cowboys and Indians with interchangeable parts, junior covered waggons, and pneumatic guns that fire table tennis balls...just a few of the many ingenious toys on show.
