Re: Vintage cast iron house and carriage
<p>99.9% of these are reproductions made within the last 20 years, based on late 19th to early 20th century examples by companies such a Hubley. I believe this one is as well, there is generally quite a few of these listed on ebay, I'd check there for a price.</p><p> </p><p>Lovejoy </p>
Re: Vintage cast iron horse and carriage
<p>I think you may be wrong on this. None look like this on ebay. I sell there and that was the first place I looked. I did google it and found one coke one that was going for $1900.00. Now I know mine is not coke but has the same people in the carriage and the same Horse. You maybe right but Im still unsure. Thanks any more info please<br />let me know.</p>
Re: Vintage cast iron house and carriage
Hubley Yes I saw one on ebay for 125.00 but it was small and didnt look like mine. If you get time google it. Like I said the one I saw was the same as mine but didnt have coke on it and only 4 horses. Mine has 8 Even if it is Hubley worth more then what I paid but realy would like it more if it was reel. Ok then that guy's is over priced or I got the real deal? Thats for the Info if you have more feel free to let me know. Thanks for your time... Richard
Re: Vintage cast iron house and carriage
<p>I mentioned Ebay because that's where you find the repros listed from time to time. The originals are far older than than any of those by Coke. A real late 19th century wagon by the original makers such as Ives sell for over $1000.00 at auction. Here's a fun site for you: http://cast-iron-toys.com/</p><p> </p><p>Lovejoy </p>
Re: Vintage cast iron house and carriage
Thanks again for the info but I just dont see any that look like mine. But I will take your word for it. It just dont look the same as mine thats all im saying. Is there a chance mine is real or what?
Re: Vintage cast iron house and carriage
<p>Nobody can really tell you without examining the piece, things like flat looking pastel paint jobs, bright chrome axles etc. are dead giva ways, but it's really hard to tell from images.</p><p> </p><p>Lovejoy </p>
Re: Vintage cast iron house and carriage
<p>were the chains on it when you got it? Is it possible that the person you got it from put the chains on it , because they were missing ?</p>
