I Don't Do Dollhouses

Ok, maybe some of ya'll have broader horizon's than me, but I just don't do doll houses, or "family" themed toy playsets.  But it seems every antique mall I visit has at least one of these tin litho houses sitting on a high shelf, covered in dust, mocking me, knowing that if it were ANY other marx playset piece, I'd grab it in a heartbeat....

Here's a  culprit that I found recently, in good shape and looked fairly complete.



Gimme a Fort Apache any day....

There good for a Swat/SAS Hostage rescue scenario.I guess girls do take better care of their stuff than boys did,like you say you can always find Dollhouses in Antique/2nd Hand/Thrift shops but I've yet to find a Tin T-Cohn Ft Superior or the Marx Tin Cavalry Bldg sitting on a shelf.Kuvaszsleepybear.
