A New Visit to TinToyCar




It's always nice to revisit the websites and people who have helped 
me with my blog over the years. Mr. Javier Hernández is one of the many 
people who have assisted me to write about toys. As time has gone by, I
have watched how his business has continued and blossomed. Also,
the overall website has become better and better. The photo has
always been excellent, but now I've noticed many more photos.

I also noticed that he's set a place on his website whereby people from
around the world can communicate with him in English, Chinese,
Denmark, The Netherlands, France.and The Czech Republic.

 Not only are there many different categories of toys such as
Cars, Robots, Space Toys,  Motorcycles, Others, and Projects and Customs,
but each of the categories has sub-divisions.

As an example, the Motorcycle division is sub-divided into 
Battery-Operated, Friction, Parts, and Windup.

It's nice to see how his business has matured and expanded.

The toy that I selected for this post is a

TippCo. Western Germany 50's Scooter Bella Friction
8.25 inches ( 21 cm) original Tin Toy Motorcycle

There was a lot more written details about the toy, and its' condition,
so if you are interested, just visit Javier's website, and you'll
be  able to read more about this toy. 

Also, I also observed that Javier provides a lot
of information, including any scratches or damage
that might be on a toy. 

That's good business practise to  do.

He's also added a short video of the toy moving around.







So that's it for today. 
Take a look at Javier's website. 
Theres lots on interesting toys, and you'll learn by
a visit to his site.

If you're ever interested to have me write a blog post for you,
by all means, please write. I'll also tell youwhat size photos to submit, 
as well as how to light the toys to show the best detail , and
to present the toy in its' best views.

Thank you for visiting my website blog, and as always,
have a great part of the day or night, wherever you may be.

My name is (Mr.) Stacey Bindman and I can always be reached at

A Nice GAMA Friction Cadillac 300

I always like to visit Mr. Ron Michaud on his ebay store named OLDTOYS69. 
He always has many toys for sale, and you can easily spend an hour 
looking and reading about toys that you haven't seen before.  As for a blogger,
he always presents a lot of photos to show every different facet 
from top, bottom and all four sides.  Also, he knows his toys, and presents the description with much information.Not only does Ron work hard to present lots of photos and information,but he has an excellent reputation on ebay.
