TOYS IN ARGENTINA By Roberto Frassinetti I would like to inform "YESTERDAYS TRACTORS CO" readers of the activities of the Buenos Aires Toy Museum, a virtual museum on the internet, where I am working on a research project on vintage toys and games from Argentina. This website is not only a virtual museum with permanent exhibitions, but also has information on shown items, their history and their cultural significance to Argentina, Latin America and world wide. We cover hand made toys as well as industrial items, objects abandoned in the last decade in favour of electronic video games. The Buenos Aires Toy Museum is intended to be a gathering point for those looking for collectors items from Argentina or information on them. I am the creator of the museum, an antique dealer and collector, interested in all kinds of toys, including farm toys,robots and space toys. With the help of Florencia Rodriquez, Leonard Candiano, and Julian Rodriquez the museum has tackled many research projects on vintage toys. This group of three young university students works full time on the project, putting their heart and soul into the museum. They are working on two books, one on Argentine diecast car (Inclujded will be items on John Deere made in Argentina tractors,etc), the other on toy robots, both soon to be published. We invite visitors to the website at http://www.ba-toymuseum.com.ar The Spanish version has been updated and we are in the progress of updating the English one. Or you can contact me: Roberto Dario Frassinetti, Director, Buenos Aires Toy Museum, Albarellos 916. Acasusso. Buenos Aires, Argentina. Or by email at: info@toymuseum.com.ar
