American Folk Toys
The drawings and instructions contained in this book would do credit to some of the hobby magazines devoted to woodworking. They would be very understandable to the experienced woodworker and would still be useful to the casual hobbyist. Depending upon your skill, of course, the product may vary from looking exactly like the toy illustrated to something that looks -- well, let's just say "different. This would
be an excellent gift book for a relative who likes to do
woodworking and has children, nieces, nephews, or grandchildren who
would appreciate some hand-made gifts or for someone wanting to do
some items for a flea market or church bazaar.
A copy of American Folk Toys cost 10.95

The author of this book, Dick Schnacke, has been one of the
leaders in the making of folk toys. He started making the in the
1960's and has only recently retired. While not all the toys he
makes are appropriate for use in a civil war impression, many of them
are correct for that time period.
