Just added 5 Unique Automotive, diecast/small scale, pieces to the collection from this past weekend.

Went antiquing over several days, and found these 5 pieces made by F&F Mold & Die out of Ohio. They were part of a series of cars offered by Post Cereal as mail in “rebates” in the 1960s(?). As always here, station wagons rank higher in Uniqueness than the other vehicles offered. 😁🤷🏻‍♂️

Enjoy!

Gearing up here for the annual Professional Car Society Micro Meet held in Mt Airy Maryland next weekend.

In the cold of February and March, it’s tough in our area to get your real 1:1 collector cars out, so why not have a Micro Meet and bring out all your Professional Car models, miniatures, and more? What showroom car(s) should I take?

Enjoy!

Been adding a few Unique Automotive Toys to the collection recently.

These two Midget-Marx Cement Mixers, and two ambulances by Matchbox and Corgi were all recently added. The ambulances are great additions to the collection, and the Marx Mixers are really Unique in that I didn’t even know there was a Midget-Marx line of toys until I saw these at an antique store recently.

Only a couple of Auto or Transportation related books, but also a few Funeral Home ads. Not as many as I’d like, but not a complete strike out. I’d do it again.

I’ve always loved the Poison ☠️ Pinto from the day it was released in the mid 1970s. Who wouldn’t love a hot rodded, Ford Pinto, Wagon, an I right? Put it up on a 4x4 chassis and it’s a win-win build!

Recently released in this two pack with Rodger Dodger, it was a must have. With only minor tweaks from the original (last pic) it has stayed an absolute favorite!
