Reply to "What do you collect?"

RKENNEY:  I loved the idea that someone is collecting the 54 mm figures, we likely all have some on our layouts or in out collection.  They were quite common "under the tree" in my youth with skaters, skiers, figures on sleds etc.  I thought you might like to see a somewhat smaller grouping, all of which are left over from my boyhood lay outs in the 1950's either O gauge or later on HO.  The larger ones are 40 mm high with the exception of the seated motorcycle cop (this was always my favorite.  The soldiers in the background are even smaller at 30 mm .  The Pullman Porter is the largest figure at about 45 mm .  I note that the poses like the lady and the engineer seem to mimic the same figures in the larger 54 mm size.  Mine have no maker on them but I am reasonably sure they are American and not Britans.  P.S. the advantage of these little guys is I can store the entire collection in a plastic cup!!

Good Hunting !
