Brian's collection includes several Cyclops signs and he said this one, while on the smaller end of the scale, was in particularly good condition. 'There's a lot of pedal car collectors on the look out for signs and this one is of a very high calibre.' The sign depicts children playing a game of cowboys with their Cyclops bike, pram, scooter and pedal car. 'Nothing like riding the wide open spaces of childhood's boundless imagination on a Cyclops', the sign reads. 'These famous Australian made toys keep happy youngsters in the fresh air.' 'Cyclops toys remain a never-failing source of fun and pleasure throughout the whole of childhood because CYCLOPS Toys last for years.'
