Description

The listing, VINTAGE GERMAN WOODEN MINIATURE TOY Farm has ended.

Very old German miniature toy farm. It is missing one thing and that is the tree. :-( Would make a nice gift to someone that collects old toys.

Questions & Comments

I don't know about antiques being over 100 years old. Does listia have that in writting?
I think this listing is just where it belongs.

Cars over 25 years old are listed as classic cars and can be registered as such.

This is a listing under antiques. A antique item is over 100 years old. Is this? What is the circa date and the manufacturer? Thanks

Antique is 25 to 30 years old. That is unless Listia has there own version of this.

Also the only thing the box says is Made in western Germany. if you look at the first picture you can see it. It also has a 10/2.

Sorry I had that wrong 15 to 25 years is a classic. over 25 years they call it a antique.

Item is from the 1940's. I did a little research and it says that an Item can be considered a antique on some items at 50 years. I guess cars can be different here in FL. lol either way Item is more than 50yo.

technically, an item that is 100 years old or more, is considered antique. so, each year, many new antiques enter the marketplace. However, Western Germany would indicate before or during WW2. So, most folks say that this is "vintage" even though that's a vague term that actually means nothing without a number on it. I think it's fine to put your toy under antiques. I collect little old toys and I'd consider it an antique in the broad sense of the word, but not technically. No matter, though, it's a wonderful little set with the box and I think it's great.

We have this one town close to us that is known for antiques. One street has nothing but antique shops. They try to sell items from the 80's and 90's as antiques.

and I would love to have it in my small, meager collection of awesome stuff!

Dec 11th, 2011 at 11:31:07 PM PST by

They are great little sets.

Dec 12th, 2011 at 3:22:18 AM PST by

OMG! I had one of those growing up! :D

Dec 12th, 2011 at 5:24:35 PM PST by

Oh actually, if it says made in western Germany, then it has to be after WW2... That's when Germany got split up into east and west...

Dec 12th, 2011 at 5:29:06 PM PST by

Yup, you are correct. :-) Happy bidding.

Nov 12, 1989, East Germany was collapsing and the Berlin wall fell. After that, the official name is The Federal Republic of Germany.
