Many of us are 37 to 47 years old now and have forgotten about collecting. But some like me have never stopped and are actively collecting right now.  Fortunately lots of toy cars are still are packed away in attics, basements, and garages. The challenge for collectors is to find those collections and hopefully add more cars to our own collections.  Matchbox cars are easy to collect as there were only 75 cars made in 1969 and they each came in only one color.  All you need is one of each, preferably mint-in-the-original-box.  The cars made from 1955 to 1965 are much harder to find. 
 
Here is what I need to know about your cars:

1. What models you have (each car is stamped with the model name and number

2. What color they are

3. What the condition of the model and box are (mint in package, mint loose, near mint, excellent, good, fair, and poor) When grading cars look closely at the 4 corners and any sharp edges, these get the most wear.

4. How have they been stored (helps to determine the level of paint deterioration)

You can e-mail this information to me or call (360) 896-2045 to discuss your collection.

Or if your cars are in nice condition and you want them to go to a good home, pack cars securely and ship to:
