I've always wanted to have my own museum, so I finally opened one here. Many of my items can be viewed by the public. If I know you, you can register and I'll grant you access to more. I'm especially interested in meeting people who collect Holgate Toys. Please use the Register link at the top left to contact me, join my Holgate Toy Collectors group on Facebook, or send me a message: .
