Marx Skyscraper AD

Our friend Brian Johnson sent this old ad advertising a sale for the Marx Skyscraper Playset. As you can see the set was for sale $2.98!  If you try to get the playset today mint in the box it would send you back several thousand dollars. The building alone can go for 300 or more.

    net….” Surely Hobby Bunker has a “hero” in stock for three bucks?

      Your comment comes up on the main comments section as well. To get that cheettan figure may be hard as most people will pass onit. I will keep an eye on as I check things.

    Paul –

    do you still sell toy soldiers on eBay? I enjoy your site but can’t find what – if anything – is for sale.
