The Flowerpot Men


Someone in the gardens of the Palais Carnoles has had fun constructing these Flowerpot Men?

Anyone remember 'Bill and Ben Flowerpot Men? '
This video is from 1953.

    One of them sounds like Mr Bean...

  5. I wonder if these smallest pots can be used for plants or only for little legs and arms. Great find!

  6. Jilly, I somehow missed Bill and Ben when I was growing up even though I was just the right age. Thank you for filling in a glaring gap in my education.
