Important info on availability and value, and
discontinued items. |
In days gone by, when most toys
were home made, cast iron toys were a rare and wonderful gift.
They were kept and passed down from generation to generation. And
their popularity has never waned.
Today, Cast Iron toys, doorknockers,
doorstops, even outdoor ornaments and statues that are
made to by-gone
specifications (replicas) are coveted collectables, and wonderful
decorations. There are Cast Iron subject matter for every
taste: the little boy in most men love the Toy trucks
and other vehicles that roll and may operate in other ways; everyone is fascinated
by mechanical banks; there are animals and insects
to satisfy anyone's preferences.
Most
people become collectors of one subject or another, and marvel
at the interest their display engenders in visitors. Thus, creating a
whole new type of gift for the person that is hard to buy for.
Mechanical banks were especially coveted; a
milestone in toy production, they were the computer games of their time.
Some believe that these amazing mechanical toys
spurred the minds of many young children to become innovative adults.
In the computer era, mechanical aptitude is sorely needed in our youth.
Give one to a young friend and watch his, or
her, enjoyment and fascination grow. Unlike the children of yesteryear, who played with
such toys for hours on end, in this fasted paced world of the short
attention span, cast iron mechanical banks and other toys fill a
different need. They often become prized possessions that are
prominently displayed.
Children are not the only candidates for
Cast
Iron products; not by a long shot. These are great gifts for
adults. You'll find Cast Iron Toys on the shelves of executives, cast
iron doorstops are wonderful decorations and shelf pieces; a cast
iron animal will add another dimension to your flower or vegetable
garden, as will cast iron stepping stones or hitching posts;
decorative coat hangers or shelf supports will spruce up any
room.
Virtually
everyone is a candidate for these remarkable gifts.
Doorstops, statues and lawn decor are
great and sought after pieces. These are the small touches that by
themselves may not be noteworthy in some minds, but they add character and
definition to a room, office or yard.
On a visit to a friend's for a barbeque, my
then 4 year old daughter came running up to me full of excitement and
said, "daddy, come look at the frog." Expecting to see a
real frog, I was surprised to see a large cast iron frog in the flower
garden. My host joined us and said, "recognize
that?" I didn't. She informed me it came from FunClassics.com and didn't I know
all of the products that I sold. Well, I
had never mentally placed the frog, that I'd seen a hundred times on a
shelf in the stock room, in a garden surrounded by flowers. It
looked so perfect there; she told me that everyone commented on
it.
Cast Iron is a great decorative
statement. The proof of this is the fact that after hundreds of
years, so many of these pieces are coveted and are still being used in
homes and business all over the world.

Important information on
availability and value:
Discontinued & Out of Stock banks. In
a calculated effort to keep the prices and value of Cast Iron
Collectables rising, the manufacturer stops production on each item
every so often. They do this with no forewarning; we find our

By today's manufacturing standards,
cast iron can be described as rough, crude, even primitive.
Operating pieces do not always operate well, the finish is rough with
sharp edges; the painting is as rough as the iron. However, these
rough qualities are what makes cast iron so coveted. Cast Iron
products are decorative, interesting pieces, they are not finely made
precision pieces, but reproductions of a manufacturing technology of
by-gone age.
By today's standards, cast iron is a
