Donley Auctions Exceptional 2-Day Toy Auction 

Post # 1

When I searched for the Donaly auction, some reviews were posted on the 'Net.

Donaly Auctions had a very good reputation from the reviews, and I admire their candid honesty in showing and describing the items going to auction.

To quote this fine auction company:

"Our auction house is entrusted by consignors and collectible experts worldwide."

"Our experienced staff has over 100 years of combined knowledge and experience."

"Over 5 decades of collection, buying, and selling vintage Americana, rare antiques, and items of historical significance".

I decided to select one item for this post because it was the first toy that attracted my attention on the Donley Auctions's website.

It's Lot # 1272

Here is the description of this nice toy

"Hard to find and highly desirable

Yonezawa Atom 27 Japanese tin litho racer.

Approximately 16" (40.64 cm) and in good overall condition featuring a futuristic eye catching color combination and design/Appears to be original with driver w helmet, chrome accents and no rubber on the tires. Some cosmetic imperfections noted are associated with age and wear, include minor scratches, oxidation and discoloration. Front wheels roll with a slight wobble, friction is not engaged and does not work along with light oxidation on chrome accents and bottom edge."

What I admire about the Donley Auctions descriptions is their honest descriptions.

Scratches, rust, or discoloration are all noted, and there always is an exceptional amount of photos that accompany each and every listed item.

Please be sure to visit their second post that I posted after this one. Also, please have a visit to their website and this fine auction. I've never seen 1000 toys listed on one auction at one time. This is exceptional, and there are  a wonderful group of toys to be seen.

So that's it for today and thanks for visiting my blog. 

I hope you enjoyed reading this post, and by all means, please visit the second post.

Thanks for visiting my blog.
