What JF Bastok buys in La Hulpe
Antique toys from 1900 to 1980: dolls, automatons, mechanical toys, robots, trains, planes, boats, lead soldiers, composition figures (Elastolin, Durso, Lineol), model cars in every scale, model kits and video games.
What determines the value
A toy is valued by brand, model, period, condition and above all its original box: a boxed model car or train can be worth several times the same model unboxed. Complete, working toys are the most sought after.
