Early Transportation Toys: On the Move

June 2006

When I think about toy collecting, the first thing that comes to mind is the kids’ movie Toy Story 2, where Woody, a once-beloved and recently discarded cowboy doll, finds himself in the clutches of a villainous toy collector who wants to shut him back in his original box, park him on a shelf and sell him off to a Japanese museum.

Woody preferred being used as a plaything to being admired as a collectible. But hey, there are worse fates.
