Comparing any brand markings found on your toys to images of the hallmarks found on authentic pieces shared via trustworthy online resources can offer further insights. You may also wish to have a certified appraiser or experienced antique dealer give you their opinion on your toys. Explore a collection of cast iron toys on 1stDibs.
