Seeing the picture of the Clippies reminds me of a story a mate told me last week.
A photo was posted elsewhere of a couple of 1970's Glasgow kids standing in a back court, both dressed in identical astronaut outfits. Classic 70's stuff - silver lamé suits with NASA badges and big, goldfish bowl plastic helmets etc and my mate had commented that he remembered those well. All his mates had spaceman outfits or cowboy or soldier get ups, but for some odd reason a family member had bought him a bus conductor outfit, complete with change bag and clippie machine etc.
When all his mates were running around shooting each other with machine guns or laser beams, he was busy giving anyone that killed him a ticket.
