This is without a doubt, my favorite of my toy collections. I have 11 of them, ranging from the '30s to the early '60s. I have Marx, Berwin, Mettoy, Simplex, Unique, Tom Thumb. I love the great colors & graphics. They must have been so much fun to play with back in the day! Each one really worked at one time, although I haven't really tried to operate them.

These are great! Cub is my favorite. Thanks for showin them.
You might be able to see that I have the box for the Cub, too! It's really nice.
Awesome collection!
Beautiful collection.
So many of the old black and white movies back in the 40's revolved around a newspaper and this is what these remind me of. I could think my sister back in the sixties would have loved to get a typewriter, any one of the ones shown. Beautiful collection !!~
