Buzby Posters

A unique gift for someone named Buzby

Who was Buzby?

Buzby, the multi-coloured bird, was the hero of a long running British Post Office Telephones publicity drive during the late 1970's to early 1980's. He appeared in a series of television commercials where his punch line was "Make Someone Happy"
The television commercials featured the British character actor Bernard Cribbens as Buzby's voice.
There was an extensive poster and billboard promotion of which the above are just a small part. 
 The campaign attracted a great deal of publicity at the time, with the public either loving Buzby (The majority) or loathing him (The minority).

Please call (Gavin Payne) by telephone if you wish to place an order, or have an enquiry.  I can usually be reached 9.00am to 5.45pm including weekends. Calls in the evening are not appreciated and could make me very grumpy. The number is 01245 400601.

I am in the shop most Saturday and Sunday mornings between 10.00 and 12.00. Conversions and repairs are often carried out while you wait.

If you have a telephone that you want to know more about, or have it repaired or converted, please have it right next to you when you call. Please also have a selection of small flat bladed screwdrivers to hand.
 I do not give advice for DIY repairs or conversions or valuations of any kind over the telephone or by email. Please bring the telephone to my shop for assessment, but always call me first before bringing it in.
