hardhats

Several years ago I went on an ebay binge, buying Fisher Price people. I like their bright colors and variety. The guy on the left is my very favorite of all. He stands out from the crowd in his shiny silver hat and mustache......

I have two print drawers almost full, mostly with FP people. I didn't know about the older ones, like my silver hardhat guy, until I started seeing them on ebay.

There are so many different ones.... I have Sesame Street ones, old wooden ones, etc..... Firefighters, chauffeurs, clowns, Indian chiefs..... I don't begin to have all of the kinds there are.

And then there are the other little dolls that also fit into the print tray slots that are not FP..... I'll have to take a pic of one of the whole print drawers -- provided I can stand back far enough that the dust doesn't show.

I LOVED "little people" when I was a kid. I owned the house, the school, the farm (it made mooing sound when you opened the doors. When I was little, they were wooden, and those are still my favorites. My parents didn't foresee the collectible aspect, so all of my toys eventually were donated or in other ways disappeared, but these are great. I love the perfectly round heads & simple bright colors. Super collection
