I live in Australia and have been a fan since ABBA first appeared on TV here in 1975. Follow my blogs for ABBA updates and check out my ABBA website ABBA Fanatic !

About This Blog

I created this Blog as a catalogue for articles and clippings about ABBA from Australian newspapers and magazines from the 70's. If you have any articles you would like to share, please email them to me to be included.
I am also interested in buying any Aussie articles or scrapbooks. Just drop me a line.

ABBA Original Merchandise Advertisements Australia

Here is a selection of great original advertisements for ABBA merchandise in Australia.
These advertisements were in Australian newspapers and magazines.

So do you have all these items ?

I have never seen the Kite or the Spunky! Clutch Bag or the Arrival tube suit !

I wonder how many collectors have all of the necklaces that were available back in the 70's ?

A great original advertisement for the Aussie/New Zealand canvas bags - this one showing the image that is on my bag !

Then a pic of my canvas bag - and a second Aussie advertisement.
They were more expensive in New Zealand :)
