Nostalgic Collection®
-
Created in 1991, Nostalgic Collection is
a European Fair in Brussels that attracts
collectors from 14 countries… including of
course the United States and Japan.
-
This fair revolves around 3 main themes : old
toys and dolls along with all kinds
of toy metal soldiers (CBG, Britain,
Mignot, Mim, Lucotte, Heyde,…) or made from
other materials (Hausser, Lineol, Durso, BM,
Incamin, Solido, Elastolin, Aludo, Quiralu, …),
dolls (Bru, Jumeau, Kestner, S.F.B.J.,
Simon & Halbig, Steiner, Armand Marseille, Unica,
…) and their environment (wardrobes, furniture,
miniatures, dining sets, …) plush toys as
soft as they are valuable (Steiff, Hermann,
Schuco, …), board games (N.K.,
……………………...) and wooden toys (Bois Manu,
Fisher Price, ………………), toy robots (Roulet
& Descamps, Vichy, Bontemps,…) etc.
-
Tin toys attract many fans, electric
trains (Bing, Bub, Carette, Distler, Falk,
Fleischmann, Issmayer, Ives, Jep, J de P, Jouef,
Kraus, LR, Lionel, Märklin, Marx, Plank,
Radiguet, Rossignol, Schoenner, Trix, Basset-Lowke,
Rock & Granner, …) and cars in every
possible scale (scale model cars make up 25 to
30% of all items on sale: Arnold, CIJ, Citroën,
Corgi Toys, Dinky Toys, Einfalt, Fischer, Gundka,
Günthermann, Hess, Joustra, Kellermann, Lesney,
Huki, Gama, Matchbox, Mettoy, Orobr, Tipp & Co,
Wells, Wiking,…), sought after productions made
by the most prestigious toy makers – Märklin,
Hornby, Bing, Lehmann and Meccano – but also
more charming toys, circus big tops and all
things circus-related (Blomer & Schuler, Eberl,
Paya, Rico, Ingap, Vielmetter, Kohler, Lehmann,
…), merry-go-rounds, little animated
characters (Fernand Martin, Günthermann,
Levy, Stock, Biller, Kellermann, Moko, Ebo,
Mangold, …) and all sorts of piggy banks.
In the 1950’s, Japanese makers proved to be very
innovative when producing animated toys. The
first were exclusively made of lithographically
printed stamped plate, the following were made
of stamped plate and celluloid. The main
producers were Alps, Asahi, Bandai, Haji, MT,
SH, Taiyo, TN, TPS, Line Mar,…
Some of them produced the famous « Battery Toys
».
Like last year, the rarest items will be shown
in display cases.
-
Nostalgic Collection is also an eagerly
awaited meeting for all fans of old publicity
items which, whatever the trends and the
times, are increasingly sought after. Their
value keeps rising not only in the eyes of
collectors, but also of decorators who
appreciate their unusual look.
-
Perfume bottles are the third theme:
vials with all fragrances of temptation from the
early times to the modern days, from all corners
of the world.
