Collector's Guide to American Transportation Toys, 1895-1941
Summary
The Freed book is one of a kind. I have many similar attempts on my bookshelf, but this one is the most thumbed-through, and clearly the most useful. For American toys only, and the better quality and older ones. The book was assembled in the spirit of scholarship, not glitz, and I even doubt if the author has a toy collection. Many photographs, detailed description, approximate costs at auction or sale are all there. I went to the trouble to call the author to thank him for this fine effort. Paperback keeps it cheap...if you can find it.
