Roald Dahl
In August 2001, Robertson's says
it has shredded the golly, which was its mascot for 91 years,
because children no longer recognise the character.
Robertson's, famous for its controversial Golly mascot released
the Roald Dahl badges to spark interest amongst a new
generation of collectors.
