I'm not a collector, but I do have a small collection of vintage toys accumulated over the years. I too am a dollaholic. I do collect dolls.

Mrs. Hawk is a Barbie collector. Which means I know more about Barbie than any man should. Once at trivia night at the local bar, the final question was "what is Barbie's last name". Of course, I knew it, and won the contest and a round beers. I've never heard the end of it.

I have a sort of unofficial collection of games from the 1950's. It started with the Groucho Marx "You Bet Your Life" home version, and has been growing a bit from there. I have an original "Name That Tune" from the 50s in unused condition, as well as Jan Murray's "Charge Account", "Break the Bank", an exciting TV game, and "Two for the Money", America's most exciting television quiz game. Also a 1930s edition of "Touring", a popular Parker Bros. card game to this day.
I didn't start out with the intention of collecting all these games, but I just can't pass them up whenever I see them at my local antiques venues, they're just too cool.

My sister has a large collection of Madame Alexander dolls, pretty much all from the '50's and 60's. She has about 100 of them. I don't know if they're worth much, but I'm guessing they are. Anyone know much about them?

No, it's Swell!

If it's Mattel, It's swell.
