Tilly's 20 inches?? Nice to see big balloons being used massively in public situations, are they fully inflated or could they get bigger?

Too sad nowadays.... you only see 11" balloons and smaller on public events

I think they were only 16 inches back then. Could only get them at Woolworth.

Ah.. I see... I had the idea they were 20" underinflated.

Don't know about Woolworth... and I heard time ago that Tilly closed and don't produce balloons anymore

Yep, Tilly is gone and their stock stock has been sold off. They are very rare and expencive now, though i still wanna try to get one of their famous worker airships!
