Roy, thank you for the comment. The Rolleiflex 4x4 would use 127 film, that isn't produced anymore. But my giant camera isn't a real camera, it is a promotional item made by Rolleiflex to advertise th...

slackjack, thank you for your comment. This isn't a real camera. It is a dummy made in 1932 to promote the launch of the Rolleiflex 4x4 camera. It is a replica, with no moving parts, it is a giant mod...

The 4-10-2 is a monster! Nicely taken pictures.

"Little Jim" was a J.C. Penney's toy brand. They made many pressed steel vehicles, including cars, trucks, planes, trains, etc. Your's seem to be from the 1930s. Google "Little Jim" J. C. Penney to se...

The coin is a George III half crown from circa 1820. The other side should have King George's portrait.

If you want to contact me, please send me a message to checoni@hotmail.com

I understand that there's a British coin in this piece, but I am also pretty sure that the symbol isn't an original part o f the coin, but was added to create the pin or brooch.

This emblem is from a soccer team in Brazil, "Sport Club Internacional", founded in 1909. Please check the link and go to the bottom of the page to see the emblem evolution. https://pt.wikipedia.o...

I am probably wrong, but it doesn't seem to be old to me. The metal seems to be stamped and the weathering seems to be painted on.

Hey Mani, thank you for the love, the link and the advice! I will go for the stand only then. I actually do not own the provenance, I only copied an image I found online of an invoice of this Tejedor ...

I would be happy with these 3. Nice find.

Hello Phil, hope you are doing well. I'm glad to see you are online again! Thanks for the love and yes, I think I was lucky to find something cool to remember this great trip to Spain. Hopefully Mani ...

Thanks for the love valentino97!

Thanks Broochman, fortapache, Watchsearcher and vetraio50

I always wanted one of these. I bet they don't work as well as they look.

Wonderful piece.

Many thanks to elansky Hunter Mrstyndall and Newfld for the love!

That's a though one...where did you find it? BB...I loled of the IUD idea...you are the man...

Roycroftbooksfromme1, I still have it and didn't restore it yet. I am afraid of compromising its value by doing something wrong. I am not ready to sell it yet and the new plan is to contact specialist...

wow...this is impressive.

Thanks mickeyismagic!

Hello antiquerose, no, it is not very common, as I couldn't find any other other picture online besides the one in the link. I guess this is because this was a very cheap, low quality product so not m...

Hello Mani, nice to see you, thanks for the love.

Thank you very much everyone!

Hello Phil, thank you for the love. I am OK and I hope you are doing good too my dear friend.

Wow...what a beautiful, beautiful truck. I envy you.

Thank you Phil for your comment. You are always so kind. I am trying to leave my comfort zone and look for things I would usually ignore. I will post some other finds soon.

Thank you AdeleC and fortapache for the lovw.

I just love COE flat face vehicles. Nice job.

Gorgeous, gorgeous! The Snow White is my favorite, with the little birds. And they are in excellent condition too. Nice find Wandelessfairy!

I missed some pieces I regret not being crazy enough to keep bidding on. Now I follow a quote you once wrote: "Buy, then think how you'll pay for it".

What a beautiful work. I wish I could find one of these.

Hey Manikin, nice display. Do you know when these were made? These are prohibited here in Brazil now. Here's a film from 1936 showing how the poor butterflies were abused back then https://www.youtube...
