Now in it's tenth and updated editionm Toys & Prices 2003 from Krause is a very fine guide for dealers and collectors which packs over 4,000 photos into a gallery of popular collectible toys.

Latest Edition Of The Popular Toys Guide

I used and reviewed last year's edition (2000 issue), and find this brand new 2001 issue even better. There are 958 pages (6xx9") in this volume, with more than 700 black and white photos. There's an 8 page color section. The authors have updated the listings of over 20,000 toys in up to three condition grades. This expanded edition now includes some of the "newer" toys such as Weebles, and TV toys such as those based on Howdy Doody, Scooby Doo, Pee Wee Herman, and the Flintstones. Additional new chapters cover space toys and robots. Each section contains background information about the topic. If you can't find the toy in this book, you'll have problems finding it in any book. Very, very comprehensive. Toy collectors will use it often.

Has become one of the best tools in my pricing toolbox!

I highly recommend this book for anyone needing a comprehensive overview of just about any toy you could imagine.

The Best Toy Resource Book I've Seen

This book has more items than many of the other toy books you will find here. I know, I have 2 others and they don't come close to the number of toys this book has listed. There are plenty of images too, 2 to 4 on every fourth page or so. There are 925 pages here with about 50 entries per page. So, if you're looking for quantity, look no further.

THE year 2000 toy collector's guide book.

Massive 944 page book containing toys and prices updated for the year 2000. Included are 500 black and white photos and an 8 page color section. Detailed listings for over 19,500 toys made from 1843 to 1999. It covers toys from action figures, coloring books, erector sets, to PEZ containers, restaurant premiums and Rock and Roll, to View-Master Reels and western toys. There are more than 55,000 current values provided !! Brief histories of major categories provide useful information. Toy collectors will find it of great value, especially when bidding on internet auctions. A book you'll refer to often.
