Description
I recently came into a Tonka truck collection after my father-in-law passed away and would like to get an estimate of its worth. I have the following trucks:
- Complete 1950s-era orange Hi-way construction set with signs (no boxes)
- Limited edition reproductions from the DeSalle collection from th 1990s including two Morell Meats trucks, Ace hardware box truck, Harley Davidson box truck, Hi-way lowboy and an attachment for the Bruce floor wax truck - all are signed by Don DeSalle and stamped 002 with COA except Harley box truck
- 1950s-era red, pick-up truck
- 1950s-era school bus that says Cor-Cor on the side (sp?)
-Holsum bakery truck (poor condition)
We are looking to get a value for the collection as a whole and by individual pieces

Re: Vintage Tonka collection
If you go to Ebay and type in Vintage Tonka, over 4,000 results come up. You can get an idea there. Also type in each one separately , you might see yours. Good luck.
