The invention of the troll doll

Born in 1915 in the small village of Gjøel, Denmark, Thomas Dam was an artistic child.

The son of an impoverished fisherman, he spent his youth whittling wood and, like most kids in town, telling tall tales about evil trolls that were said to lurk in the mountains.

Although the toys are old they will never be thrown away, loved over the years for the simplicity in which they framed the minds growing up. All plastic must be taken care of and never enter landfills, rivers sweeping down to the sea.

I had so many of those Smurfs. I wonder what happened to them? I have no idea where they are now, I lost track of them a loooooong time ago. 😑

These three smurfs have been on my desk wherever I worked, my little blue companions. Fishing rod went missing, now I invested in a toothpick and dental floss a couple of years ago to give him something to hang on to.

Poor guy, with a rod like that he's going to starve!!! 😆


How many stories around these beautiful toys, each one of them brings me pleasant memories, I appreciate that you let us know the photographs of this beautiful collection
I take this opportunity to wish you a wonderful weekendHello dear friend @joanstewart good afternoon

They sit on my desk cheering me up, plastic in every way yet cute to enjoy.

Have a wonderful Friday!

Wow 1958 my parents never thought of making me yet.

Haha not a thought yet.... I am sure we collected these when Dad got petrol tank filled, it was about the year I became a teenager he got his first car, so the Smurfs are treasured from my childhood. Other toys were ones I bought the boys growing up, troll outfit used to be silver it has fallen off!

!PIZZA something I never tasted before I was around 25 !LOLZ

@joetunex, I sent you an on behalf of @joanstewart

Lol, you've been around quite a while I am impressed that you are even tagging along with this blockchain thing with us 🤣
Some are making excuses lol.

Age is but a number, it's up to each one how to live it !LOLZ

How many things can you jot down to experience in a lifetime, it's what takes us on the magic carpet ride, or blockchain....

True, I find this inspiring though I have been thinking time is against me in my early 40s without starting my family yet, something I always want is a family.

My Dad was 44 when I arrived, then my sister a couple of years later, never too late to be prepared for big task ahead, children are life altering little beings 😊

44 wow that's nice to hear lol maybe by 44 I will have my first. I so love the little ones!

Not only do these plastic toys remind us of our younger years, but if you are fortunate to still have them, some of them are worth a small fortune now.

Mine have stood on my desk smiling at me over the years, a tad worn without original boxes, simply sweet memories... I suppose everything has a price !LOLZ

My friend Phillip had his lip removed last week
now we just call him Phil.

It's funny how the box the toy came in is as important to collectors as the toy itself.
Thanks for the LOLZ

The smurfs are cute, Joan. I have one with wild red hair sort of like the last photo. My nephew gave it to me years ago. I guess he thought it matched my hair then. Lol

Now we have a couple of Trolls, pink and red, Pinky had a silver overalls that have lost the silver, Red has the elegant belly button jewel which is too cute... !LOLZ

I was told that Microwaves were invisible
But I can see mine on my counter.

Plastic is a scourge in our part of the world, cannot believe people have no love of the land they live in.

Plastic is a scourge in our part of the world, cannot believe people have no love of the land they live in.

Unfortunately is the same over here, and in some ways even worse, as we ship a load of our waste we don't want to other countries to be their problem.

Thanks and you have a magical Sunday too
