My wife thinks it is strange for grown men to collect toy cars!


My wife would agree with your wife.

Not sure what we can do about the wives...

I complain about her shoes. Doesn't seem to get me very far...

Wow...the Studebaker van in the museum looks like it just came off the assembly line.

The Civil Defense (CD) sticker is a nice touch. Not sure exactly what it indicates. Back in 1963, it was more common to see the yellow orange and black fallout shelter signs.

It was found in a junkyard and had a ground up restoration done, probably better than new now.

Maybe of interest to those who collect fake stamps and forgeries.


The only thing I have are the stamp pins.

The USPS doesn't lose any money. They make money through the use of a license agreement. A toy manufacturer, likely in China, makes this product and pays the USPS a license fee to use it's products or likeness.

Don,

This is as close as I could find for the die-cast zip van.
It is in very rough shape.
