Lots 80-93 are all collectible toys and scale models from a “first childhood to second” collection and stock of a celebrated North Suburban Chicago gentleman.

These toys and adult model projects range in age from 20 to over 50 years old many in top condition or expertly restored. Many are special limited edition with many MIB pieces. Most are difficult to acquire and are very salable in the secondary market. These are offered here in relatively large lots at low reserves for collectors, wholesalers, and internet retailers to have an opportunity to enjoy, own, and redistribute these artifacts of our past. Extensive web photos are a help, but first-hand viewing should be considered.
