A Reader wants to know if her 

Paya Toy is Authentic

    This week, I received an interesting e-mail earlier. The reader,  

Jodi Ascherman wanted to know if I could authenticate her beautiful Paya car with a driver, as  real original toy made by Paya. I don't know much about Paya toys, so I can't answer her questions. I did a search for "Are Paya Toys Still Made", and came up with several results. 

When I had opened my e-mail earlier in the week, I was pleasantly surprised to see so many photographs of Jody's toy, with large-sized files. 

Wow!

These photos were very large, and were excellent to work with. 

Of course, I had to resize them in order for reader to view them instantly, 

when they were added to Jody's post. 

One great toy reference site wrote that the toys are still being made in Spain. 

Fabtintoys wrote a brief article about the toys are still being made.

I also found one site that wrote that Paya toy reproductions are being made by

a company not related to the Paya. The company might be able to make 

toys looking like Paya toys, because perhaps the patents ran out of time.

Normally, I don't add lots of photos, but these photos  

would be excellent for viewers who might want to answer Jodi's question, 

as to the authenticity of this beautiful toy.

I hope that one of my readers will be able to help out

and tell everyone what this toy is.

1. Is this an  original Paya toy from a long time ago?

2. Is it a new-generation authentic Paya toy made by the relatives of

the original Paya toy company?

3. Is this a Paya "reproduction" made after the original 

Paya patent expired?

I hope someone can help Jodi Ascherman with an answer to her question.

And one final question:

I just tried to find the Paya website in Spain in

order to contact them. However, I couldn't find the company.

So if someone is reading this post, could you please e-mail me,

so that I could tell Jody to contact them.

I'll also write to them if I get their website and address.

As always ,thanks for stopping by to visit my post.
