Smile, Imagine, Reminisce!

Visit historic Alberton to glimpse into the childhood dreams of a bygone era in this small display of vintage toys belonging to collector Paulus Maringka.

In pristine condition with original boxes, these incredible 20th-century toys are wind-up, battery-operated, motorised, ‘rotat-o-matic’, with ‘magic’ piston action, bright colours, lights, sounds, movement, boggling eyes and authentic design details! All are geared to delight, entertain and inspire the imagination. Their main objective: fun!

Take a nostalgic trip back in time. Marvel at the creative and clever design details of these toys, which are art objects in their own right as well as historical artefacts vibrantly expressing the popular culture of their era.
