HI ALL - As a new member a bit about myself -- my two main pastimes are modelling SWISS RAILWAYS in HO (see BRUALP on UTUBE ) and collecting and restoring sad and lonely DINKY TOYS (about 400 at this time) --- I recently photographed and made a stills movie of the bulk of my collection -- uploaded onto my UTUBE website 23650283 as THE BRIDPORT COLLECTION -- most of these are restorations but some are original inc. about 25 DINKYS that were mine since childhood (I am 75 now)-- Hope you all enjoy my input to this site I certainly find all posts from members extremely interesting and especially the magazine -- BRUCE.
Welcome aboard Bruce!

Bruce--A hearty welcome from Southern California! I am a long time Dinky collector, but I do not restore. My collection dates from around 1951 and I still have all of my childhood examples, most still in very good condition and most of the boxes as well. You will enjoy the site....lots of very knowledgeable folks here that love to share pictures and Dinky experiences.
