Age, condition and there are not just that many around. RARE is not a word I use often, but this is one of those times.

Outstanding! It’s hard to believe that it was crafted out of paper mache. What painstaking details. I’d love to own something like that!

Toy you can’t play with because of its value — but still very cool. If I saw this set made in plastic from Fisher Price or Mattel (or other toy company) being manufactured today, I would definitely get it for my grandson.
