Halibut Posted June 19 Share Posted June 19 Hello all. I recently had to clear my late Mum's house and in a long forgotten cupboard in the corner of the attic I found a load of Britain's farm toys. I hadn't clapped eyes on this lot since about 1980. There are no boxes and there is slight wear on some of them....they were, happily, used as intended when I was a child rather than ornaments to look at. I grew up around farms in Scotland's pastoral south so maybe my parents imagined that's what I would end up doing. The advice I seek is this......are they worth keeping, punting or consigning to the big farmyard in the sky? Apologies for the photograph standard but it was the best I could do at short notice. Any advice will be gratefully received. Cheers, Hal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justy 46 Posted June 19 Share Posted June 19 They look to be in very good condition. You could make a handy few pound on them. But worth keeping too if you want to start a hobby like most of us maddo's here.. 😅 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
