Article Category: Entertainment

Author Name: Kellie

There are some individuals who are fond of collecting toys not because they want to play them but because they want to display or to keep them and in the long run, sell these toys for a high price. But there is a big difference in the kind of toys which are toyed with or which are valued. This is because an antique toy collector collects antique toys from the olden times. These antiques are valued all over the world because not only are they a pleasure to look at they are also valued because of the rarity, age and their mint condition. Antiques are somewhat time capsules. They capture the ideals and the mode of the time that they belong to and are somewhat transported into the present times.

So why collect toys? There are many different kinds of antiques available . There are furniture, guns, and heck, cars. Why would any adult be an antique toy collector? There are a number of reasons but the most relevant is that antique toy collecting is not as expensive as it seem to be . Just like collecting antique charms, antique toy collecting may be the most convenient antique collection ever. Since toys are lightweight, they can easily be transported. Plus, toys can be rare gems. They are a pleasure to collect because they remind you of your carefree youthful days.

For an antique toy collector to zero in on the best and quality antique toys around, you must know the brief history of toys. You should know that dolls are the most ancient kind of toys. There has been an evidence of doll existence since the 500 BC, and some dolls are made of basic materials which are wood, tin, cloth, porcelain and even glass. Next are the educational toys which are usually made of paper. These are the various puzzles, card games and paper toys that were very easy to produce in those olden times. Paper toys were first produced in the early 1600s. Then, what followed is a boost in the tinplate doll making in the United States which originated in the 1800's. Tin was considered to be the best material to use for toys . Dolls, cars, little miniature ponies and absolutely any kind of toy conceivable can be fashioned out of tin plate. During the early years of antique toy collecting, tin toys are revered because they have aged very well, and they look very precious. Later on, wood has been considered to be the next most important material to be used for toys. Wooden dolls and miniature vehicles have become the most popular toys to receive and to give during Christmas.

To determine the price for the antique toy every antique toy collector must remember that an antique is revered for their age . Yes, this is a given. However apart from age, an antique toy is also evaluated for their rarity. Rare toys are valued because of their uniqueness. Back then, toys are briefly not commercially produced. In the old times, if you or your kid wants a toy, you can go to a toy maker and personalize a unique toy. However when the manufacture of toys was made commercial, some toys lost their uniqueness. Next to be determined for the value of the antique toy is if the toy is in a good condition during the sale. Noone wants to buy a tattered antique toy. Lastly, some antiques are found to be remodeled without saying so if only to pass for being authentic . Some experts however, can see through a fake refurbished toy from afar.
