The Old Toy Box

Hi my name is Noel and I have a small hobby of die-cast and toy collecting. I love vintage items specifically toy cars and motorcycles. I was also part of the London's Toy Auctioneer in 2007 and have personally collected quite a number of various small old toys while in England. Sadly, many ended up being sold on Ebay and gave away the rest to the little boys who couldn't resist model cars. But I am glad I have kept some photos of them so I could always share, look back and enjoy.

Vintage Metal Car?

I found this while buying some toy cars in a carboot in perhaps in Brighton. It's not a die-cast model but made of thin metal and no plastic parts. This model had "crimped" axles. Very tiny car with no brand name. It looked vintage to me though possibly made in the early 50's.
