Nostalgic Toys - Ride Ons

A child's first experience with ride-on toys is and was probably a rocking horse.  After the rocking horse, we probably experienced the Radio Flyer Red Wagon and then our tricycles.  Ride on toys are one of the most memorable and exciting parts of growing up.

At this September's Brimfield Antique and Collectibles Show, there was no shortage of classic ride on toys.  Here are just a few pictures of the vast amount of kinds they had available for purchase.




The toys of old look real cool to collectors nowadays but safety and quality control has definitely improved.   The rocking horse/chair below was cute but not at all safe.
