Pair of rare 1990's Games



These are fairly hard to find games from early 90s. The Loopin Louie was complete and the Forbidden Bridge had a couple of small pieces missing. Paid $6 at the Goodwill and sold them for $60

Pre War Girls Elgin Bicycle








Girls bikes are alot more common than boys since girls took care of theirs and boys rode theirs hard and many didn't survive. Also, many bikes in this time period didn't survive as many went to scrap drives to be used for WWII. I bought the bike for $30. I took the parts off and threw the frame in the trash. I sold the parts seperately for a total of $450.
