Gents, my father-in-law recently passed away. He had a substantial collection of tin toys from the thirties through the sixties. mostly trucks and tractors. Does anyone know of a good dealer for this type of collection?

Sorry for your loss, John. Tin toys can be both interesting and worth a good amount of money. I remember my Mom regretted that many of my uncle's tin toys from their youth and also Marklin vehicles (from Gemany?) were lost/given away over the years. We still have some old 1930's home movies of tin electric trains running around a Christmas tree and I still have some items including this tin working submarine.

Very sorry to learn of your loss. Regrettably, I'm unaware of any persons knowledgeable in the disposition of such a collection. My best to you and Kelly.
