G'day All, it is now 4 years after Graeme's post, and I've stumbled across the same teatowel. Price is now $18, plus delivery of about $10, but first-time customers get free delivery. Fabric quality is very good, with a cloth weight similar to denim material. And it's good to see that 2 of the 3 vans pictured are the right way 'round for Aussie vans... ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Here's another teatowel that's available from a different supplier...https://www.thefarmerspantry.com.au/products/retro-caravan-tea-towel Note that it says "Designed in Australia", and yet again the middle van has the door on the "other side". The designer can't have been anybody from this forum, surely! ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Here's a metal sign I picked up somewhere recently (can't remember where). Size is 40cms high x 30cms wide... ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- And here's another metal sign I discovered in a Google search. Could be one to interest some of the Sunliner fraternity... cheers, Al.

Hi Franklin1, Love the tea towels but I wish they would use Australian vans on the so called Australian tea towels!😡 Even the Vango stuff has a mix of Aus and American vans on their merchandise. End of rant, Cheers hughdeany

Hugheany & Al There is still hope if we support those who recognise a good Aussie caravan design to use in their pruducts such as vintage coast interiorsAl, You will be excited to hear that Vintage coast interiors have a new tea towel design
They have expanded their range to include cushionsAnd what appears to be place matsDo you think this thread should also be expanded to include place mats and cushions ? 😉🤪😃 Cobber.

G’Hugdeany, OK, I just did a google for them too and it didn’t even find ‘vintage coast caravans’ so google aint perfect after all 😫 Just click on the blue link I posted [/a]and that should get you there.

G'day cobber,
Funny thing is that when I was originally intending to post my photos about the teatowels, I went looking for that long thread about Driftwood memorabilia, thinking it also included lots of stuff other than Driftwood bits and pieces. My search also threw up Graeme's post and this thread, so I added my stuff here instead. There are also a few other threads spread throughout the forum, relating to the collection of bits and pieces. They are an interesting trip down memory lane if you are a long-term forum member, particularly seeing the many forum names from times past ("Wonder where so-and-so is these days??"). So, to answer your question...this thread could be expanded, and other threads could be used as well: Probably doesn't matter where people post stuff, I guess. cheers, Al.

G’day Al,
Those old links are good to look at aren’t they, they remind us of why we liked our pro boards forum and have been known to make disparaging remarks about Facebook in its early years, I still think Facebook is only good if you only have two minutes to spare.
it was entertaining how a thread would be started on a particular subject but quickly get diverted by somebody making irrelevant comment that would start a conversation about something entirely different before sometimes returning to the original intent of the thread, the tea towel thread is one of many examples.
Regarding the threads about the vintage paraphernalia some of used to collect 🙄 I am now at the stage that I am looking for good homes for most of it, offers welcome.
Cobber.
