[QUOTE="wcubed, post: 3694743, member: 12663"]My mom has several wooden boxes, with drawers full of miniature things. Everything from antique Cracker Jack Toys and miniature paper dolls, to a bullet taken out of the leg of a relative from the Civil War. That is where the cocktail stirrers came from, which I just posted a little while ago. I'm going to combine a few items here that my mother calls toys, just because they are all something she played with as toys with her Raggedy Ann, which I also posted here a while back. I would guess they are actually samples that were turned into toys. The first item is this miniature iron (2 1/2 inches long) and stand (4 inches long). [ATTACH=full]311552[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]311553[/ATTACH] The second item is this wooden flatware tray which measures 5 3/4 x 3 1/2 inches, along with some miniature spoons and plates of some kinds. [ATTACH=full]311554[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]311555[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]311556[/ATTACH] What do you say? Toys, or samples?[/QUOTE]
