| Publisher Description: Toy collectors are like a group of fifth graders on a scavenger hunt... If you notice the expression on the faces of the guys as they walk around a train show or first enter a train store you'll see the excitement and anticipation of a great "find." I refer to them as fifth graders because that time of life impressed me as an age of innocence, when nothing else was on your mind but what you were searching for. Collectors all but revert to that time of life when they search for a new item for their train world. This wonderful feeling and sense of care free enthusiasm captures the essence of this book. It includes many stories related to these times of collecting enjoyment and also reminiscent of days gone by, and when all was good with the world and we were all just kids... Keep Searchin' |
