The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

Daisuke Koda, owner of Glad Hand & Co. apparel company in Tokyo, is a retrophile, car enthusiast and toy collector. Here is his homage to a 1920s tin toy and collegiate jalopy. I like this toy for its 1920s isms, but more so for the related songs. I received it this past week. • Mamma Loves Papa, Papa Loves Mamma
• The Charleston
• Don't Bring Lulu
• Big Butter and Egg Man
• Thanks For The Buggy Ride
• Lily Of The Valley
• Oh Baby
• Is Zat So
• Oh Boy
• So Is Your Old Man

I love that he made a real car after the little windup toy car--and The Race of Gentlemen always means interesting adaptations of early autos. Not a big fan of hot-rodding but this stuff is always quite interesting.
