This turquoise racing car is one of the most valuable tin toys in Brian's collection. He dates it in the 1940s and considers it extra special because of its good condition and a personal association. 'It doesn't wind up or anything, but it's in excellent condition and I do like it because it was given to me by a friend in Wagga,' Brian said.
