A Return Visit to the
Antique Toy Collectors of America, Inc.
First of all, I'd like to wish everyone a
Merry Christmas and a Healthy and Happy New Year to come.
To others who celebrate other holidays, I also wish you Health and Happiness,
and a Happy New Year.
Over time, I've bought and sold old toy catalogues. Up here in Canada, there are
not lots of toys or old brands of toys like in the USA. In earlier times with regard to old toys, we had Meccano from Great Britain. I had a set, but that was in the late 1950's. I base my comment on the fact, that when I started to blog, I searched high and low all over the Montreal, Province of Quebec (Canada) and the surrounding area, and I never saw any American toys from pre-1940 and earlier.
I remember years ago, when I was doing my "usual" search, either
someone wrote to me, or I happened to "discover" the
Antique Toy Collectors of America and their exceptional website.
I wrote to them for permission and
they were kind enough to allow me to use their photos.
The Antique Toy Collectors of America, Inc. was established in 1965, and has expanded not just to have American members, but also had invited toy collectors from around the world to join and become members.
What's fantastic about ATCA inc. is that they have lots and lots of old toy catalogues available on their website.
As you can see, this is but one catalogue that ATCA, Inc. has at their location in Washington, D.C.(USA), United States of America
The Antique Toy Collectors are always looking for new members.
The Group offers members access to their toy catalogues, members receive 2 magazines during the year titled Toy Chest Magazine ,
and they offer other features as well.
Of course there are some requirements.
So that's it for today.
To everyone, I'd like to wish you all a Merry Christmas
and a Healthy and Happy New Year.
And for everyone who celebrates another holiday,
best wishes to all, and also
a Healthy and Happy New Year.
