Car Classics
Hallmark
started Kiddie Car Classics in 1992 with five models. In total 130 different minitures
were created in this line before it was discontinued in 2001. Also created were
a line of scooter minitures, accessories, miniture Kiddie Car Classics and ornaments.
Around the late 1990's demand for these collectibles was at its peak and some
of the early models were selling for as much as $400. Interest isn't nearly as
great now days, although some of the first five models can sell for quite a bit.
Even better deals can be found at live auctions where compitition isn't as strong.
