About this title

From the Inside Flap

ng is no longer child's play! Toy prices continue to escalate, as the Perelman Sale, the Atlanta Toy Museum Sales, the Game Preserve Museum Sale at Skinner, and many other auctions have proven. Toys have become one of today's top five collectibles, and the explosion in the market has been nothing short of remarkable.
Expanded by 200 pages, this House of Collectibles edition is a completely up-to-date identification and price guide, and a professional quality volume that examines the toy market in general, makers' marks, manufacturers, shows, and live and mail auctions. Discover the secrets of determining condition, buying at auctions, and housing and preserving your collectibles. A valuable toy glossary is included, as is a comprehensive selection of publications, public collections, collecting organizations, and repair and restoration services.
With over 100 photos and an eight-page color insert, THE OFFICIAL IDENTIFICATION AND PRICE GUIDE TO COLLECTIBLE TOYS is the most complete portrait
