As promised from the last post, here are the Spear's Games Knitting Nancy boxes from 1983 and 1989. Below is the box dated 1989 with the number 55046. Below - this is what was in this particular box. The Spear's Games and Crafts catalogue unfortunately did not include the Knitting Nancy! Below - the directions found in this box are in french for the Jeannette La Tricoteuse (the illustration shown here is nothing like any Spear's Knitting Nancy) which is the french name for the vintage Knitting Nancy. (The small print at the bottom says Printed in England.) Below - the two boxes right of the photo are both dated 1983. (MCMLXXXIII) The box number is 6001. Below - inside one of the boxes (a later model Knitting Nancy along with two earlier models - as found.) For the next post I have another surprising find! ......and here is a sneak peek.......
