Customer Reviews

Interesting only if you are interested in collectables

My mother in law is part owner of an antique shop and my wife has inherited a great deal of interest in antiques and collectables. Among other things, a wooden Indian with cigars in his right hand stands in out basement. We also occasionally go to sales and see old toys and other collectable items. Therefore, this book was an interesting look at the collections that one person has acquired over the years. I recall seeing items very similar to many appearing in this collection. My grand and great grandparents also had toys similar to those pictured in this book, and I vaguely remember seeing them when I was young. If you are a collector or just interested in old toys and similar items, then you will enjoy this book.
