All About Old Toys"
(A Very Interesting website)
(Part I)


This post is the first of 2 that will introduce readers to Old Wood Toys
I'll be writing the next post soon.

    A few weeks ago, I came up with an idea. I would contact people and write new blog posts about them. I've been blogging since 2011, and I thought I'd reconnect with people and see how they're doing.

    Old Wood Toys is a very interesting website. The  creator of this website is Mr. Jim Sneed, and he is very directed to learning, selling, and buying toys. Also there is a membership for those who would like to join. This website is an excellent resource for finding information about the Schoenhut toy company. As well, there are other companies that you  have been written about for everyone to leanr and discover te many toy companies that once existed.

The screen-capture below introduces you to the website.

There is a very informative and interesting part of the website with regard 
to the company Schoenhut. When you visit the Oldworldtoys website, you will immediately notice the high quality of photography.


Below is a screen-capture that shows you some of the sections
of the website. This website is quite a resource for those wanting to learn about toys, and especially about the Schoenhut company.
