I've got good taste. . .
« on: September 12, 2021, 02:42:27 PM »
I saw this interesting old toy train:

 


The folks at Bertoia call it a ALTHOF BERGMANN CLOCKWORK UNION LINE FLOOR TRAIN. They don't offer a dtae of manufacture, but I'd guess 1880s or maybe 1890s. Certainly before 1910.

It's old.

I didn't bid on it, but thought it was neat enough to mark it so I could see what it sold for. . .

$29,000

That's BEFORE buyer's premium.  Depending on how the buyer bids and pays the buyer's premium can be 20-28%.   $34,800 to $37,120 after premium.

Here's the listing:
