    Tin Can Alley

    Just picked up a vintage tin can alley, boxed, excellent complete condition, any idea on value?

    Ok, it's a toy, but a vintage toy rifle we can all relate to :-D
    Thanks - Geoff.

    No idea of value, but I remember the Chuck Connors ad as a kid.

    There's a few on the bay at the moment - original tyco ones £15 - £30?
    There appears to be more modern versions too.
    Surprising the Govmint hasn't tried to ban them as dangerous weapons by now!
    (the ones shown are six shooters)

    This is the "ideal" one from 1976 with the Winchester rifle :-D
    Couldn't find any of the original version on the bay.
    Thanks - Geoff.

    Great memories of mine as a kid,early to mid 80's I had mine. It was the rifle version,long since sold to buy fags as a teenage tearaway. Have no idea on price but there's got to be people out there who would pay well for a piece of nostalgia like that

    The rifle one looks far better, only one I found was on an auction site - didn't say what it went for though!
