Talking About Toys n More
I have two antique dolls that I would like to see what they are worth?
Filed in The Category Antique Toys
They both have porcellan like faces, hands and feet. One
has a gown & hat on. They are in good shape but needs to be
cleaned. One is around 55 yrs. old and the other one is about
52 yrs. old. Anyone got an ideas? I hate to part with them but
need the money.
Thanks
Can you please suggest a gift for my father’s 60th birthday?
Filed in The Category Toy Cars
He’s not really into anything specific. He golfs, but it’s not a passion. He collects antique little fire trucks, but he has so many and his wife complains about how much room they take up. I’m not that close with him, so it can’t be a mushy #1 Dad type gift. Any suggestions?

In New York City, where can I shop for porcelain and/or antique dolls?
Filed in The Category Antique Toys
I need to buy one for my mother who adores dolls.. and I need to go to a store either in Manhattan or Queens and buy it tomorrow (i don’t have time to order one online).
Doesn’t have to be porcelain or antique.. just beautiful and interesting, etc. Sorry, I’m having trouble explaining. How about, anything EXCEPT barbie dolls and the like? Expensive, etc.
Do you know what these antique wooden toys or dolls are?
Filed in The Category Antique Toys
I have several of these wooden dolls that are definitely not handmade because they are too perfect. They are very old and look like they were painted with enamel.

How do I mount a mirror, to show the underside of an antique firetruck I am restoring?
Filed in The Category Toy Cars
Historic fire truck deserves to be seen on all 6 sides. I have 6 good used mirrors. I need to know the type of glue and the proper backer board to use. A common size idea would be great also. Thanks for the ideas. Robert
