        We want civilians very badly. . . . We could do with
        a judge and barristers, or a box of vestrymen. . .
        —H. G. Wells lamenting, in Floor Games, 1913, that
        toy cities could only be peopled with toy soldiers.
        Camden Arts Centre is putting on an exhibition
        of Toys Old and New from November 22 to
        December 20 in the belief that there are many
        design possibilities as yet unexplored, and that
         'toys are tools, precious objects, and sometimes
         works of art'. The Centre, which opened early this
        year, has put on some interesting exhibitions, and
        in particular a sculpture show, New Dimensions,
        which included works by thirteen sculptors, including
        Barry Flanagan, Garth Evans, and Tom Hudson.
