More Beautiful Toys from
Kraft Auction Service
Earlier today, I finished the introductory post for Kraft Auction Service. I enjoyed their excellent photography and of course the fine selection of toys. I was going to write this post. tomorrow, but enjoyed the looking at the toy auction so much, that I decided to write this second post today, and not tomorrow.
What I liked about Kraft Auction Service is their superb photography. As well,
they provide plenty of photos to accompany their photography.
I decided to select just 3 toys to present for this post.
