    I love rummaging through old photos and these pedal toys caught my eye. The boy in the airplane is my brother and the boy washing his station wagon is my brother-in-law. I don't know anything about the cars. Both pictures were taken in the mid to late forties. I hope I’m not in hot water for posting them. ;)

      You might want to add a logo or watermark to your images. I found one of my posted images (from CW) that was reproduced and being sold on ebay!

      Your brother- in - law image is one of those iconic images that many folks would buy in repro form.

      Thanks so much for the tip, Scott. It never occurred to me......
