There's not a great deal of early stuff here, maybe a piece or two from the 70's. But back in the late 80's I was always asked what I wanted for Birthday and Christmas, and I would say "Whatever you want to get me, I really don't need anything" That irked my wife and family, so I started saying, "Get me something with Mickey Mouse on it!" And you can see from the pictures what happened. Somewhere in storage are telephones, a gumball machine, Mickey shaped calculators and so on. There are also a few watches that have managed to escape the box, I need to do a roundup.
I see lots of goodies, and I did say GOODIES. I see several very nice Seikos and a birthday Bradley. Just one question, Is the backwards Goofy a Helbros or Lorus remake? Again love them all and thanks for sharing
There are 2 backwards Goofys in there, the one laying flat near center is a Pedre and there's a Lorus on the back right side. I would love to find an original Helbros at a decent price some day, that was a true work of imagination and art! Thanks!! I hope to someday build up some of the vintage stuff like you have in your wonderful collection!
Well it appears to me you've got a really Great start. I don't know if you've viewed this post of mine, but there are several 1970's-1990's watches there. , If you blow -up the pictures , you'll see several of the ones you've posted also.
