MORE FABULOUS VINTAGE WEBSITES, FINDS, ETC. FROM EVERYTHING CROTON

Some wonderful things for you today. From 1937, a promo ad for assorted Disney cartons, including Mickey, Minnie, Pluto, Donald Duck etc.

It's followed by two views of an amazing--complete with box--1953 Buddy L truck from a previous auction at Croton's own SeriousToyz. 

Outstanding in every way especially the graphics.

If you have serious toys, they have serious bidders! For more info about this premier auction house, visit www.serioustoyz.com - click on the photos and enjoy.

  1. That truck is in primo condition. Do you know what they were asking for it? Almost $500 am I correct?

    1. Yes...and if you could afford it, worth every penny!

  2. The Disney ad is great! We were watching a Disney special last night that featured such classics as The Reluctant Dragon (1941), some of the 1930's Silly Symphonies and parts of Fantasia (Rob)

  3. Rob & Monica, Back in the 1980s, the Disney channel used to show those cartoons all the time, commercial free. Now all they seem to show is low-production Nickelodeon clones with 15 minutes of commercials for every 30 minutes of programming. The classics are still the best.
