Looking for all those great postwar sets you had for the past 4 years – less than $500. Keep up the great sight!

Hi, I’ve been watching your webpage for a while, I’m looking for a rhimocerous bank by Arcade, and realize I’ve missed 2 in the last couple of years, I was out of town when the bidding ended…but I’m still looking. If you come across one please let me know.

Also I’m looking for a REAO Red Coupe, if you happen to see one. Thanks.

I was wondering if there is a source for Pratt and Letchworth repro drivers. I saw one listed on Ebay that said it might be a repro? I have a handsom cab and would like to find a driver. By the way thank you so much for your website and sales. I love these toys and usually can’t afford them but your information is so helpful in my on going education for these remarkable toys.

Hi John, DAKOTA was the name of my advertising business back in the 90s and when signing up for eBay I used the name DAKOTApaul, which has stuck ever since. Thanks for checking out the site, ad please stop by again. Paul

Hello Paul
You have a neat Web Site and appreciate your transparency. Im a retired Aero- Space engineer from Honeywell and have operating Lionel trains in a converted double garage. Florida has few basements, so some years ago the 41 buick and 52 Caddy got sold and was able to finish the room for a L/O. My wife was agreeable since it cut down the hobbies 50% and the end of 300 Hrs every year setting up trains during Christmas. I have some train sets I would like to sell/ consinement, as well as procuring additions to our collection. Have an E-Bay account with 100% feedback as well for buying only.
Regards John

I have some old cast iron toys which I believe were made by either Wilkens or Hubley. They are from the early 1900’s and my family lived in northern Vermont. Is there any way to identify which they are? Thank you
