Summary
A wooden baby's rattle in its original box (circa 1982) manufactured by 'Brima'. The box has a picture of the rattle and the word 'brima' in green with a green surround. A price label 99p is on the top, also a white label which reads 'on display ZZ corridor 1986'. The four sides are green, both ends have `Brima' in white, with a white surround with 'baby' (in white) and 'Brima' in green. The other sides have 'Brima' in white in a white surround with 'age 1/2 +' and a description of the toy in English and Portugese on one side and in French and German on the other. The brightly painted wooden rattle consists of one white rod with a dark blue ball at one end and a dark blue ring at the other. Threaded through the ring is a white rod with a light blue ball at each end. The whole forms a 'T' shape which when moved, rattles.
