With many bodies shaped like peanuts, Ted Toys made right here in New Bedford Massachusetts have long eluded me, Even with the company the Ted Toylers making thousands a week, hard to find in the south coast region would be an understatement, nobody remembers them or where they were made.
Some of the Ted Toys made by the company were very detailed and with lots of moving parts. How that was done was ingenious to the craftsman employed by the Ted-Toyler company. This was back in the 1920′s 1925 to 1930 to be exact ever before Fisher-Price came on the scene.
My ever-growing collection of these toys are for sentimental value, being brought up and raised in the area and becoming intrigued with this long since gone toy company. Do you have any of these toys sitting around? The Ted Toy company made a wide variety of the from games, to wooden soldiers on metal bases, to the giants that were 18 inches tall, to beads in a jar Many of thses fine toys can be seen at http://www.antiquetoycollections.info and you can even see a couple from my collection on there. Have any info on these Ted Toys? drop me a e-mail at tedtoycollector@aol.com
Enjoy your day
