The Lionel Model Train - How Much Is Your Collection Worth?
Are Lionel trains worth a pretty penny? Well, the answer to this question depends on various factors. For instance, the value of the train will depend on which era the train was produced and also the condition that train is in. So before you sell that train on eBay or at a local garage sale, consider these factors first.
First, the value in collectible Lionel trains depends on the era in which they were produced. Lionel has been manufacturing trains since 1902 when it first introduced the Electric Express model as a retail store display. However, the models that are most prized by collectors are the "original Lionel trains" made between 1940 and 1959. The trains produced during this post-World War II era are considered to be some of Lionel's finest products and coincide with the company's rise as a juggernaut in the American toy industry.
The trains produced after 1969 are considered Lionel's "modern era" trains. These trains have not retained as much collector interest or value especially the ones that are not in pristine condition and in the original packaging. In addition, some critics argue re-issues of vintage Lionel trains decrease the value of the original models.
Now that we've established the type of Lionel trains that are highly sought after by collector, it is important to discuss the single factor that most influences the value of a particular collectible train-the condition. Unlike hobbyists, collectors care less about how the train operates compared to how the train appears. In fact, the appearance of the train determines the value because dents, scratches, and damaged parts decrease the value to a collector. Trains that are in "mint" condition or brand new condition will command the highest price whereas those that are beat up will fetch the least amount.
So how is value actually determined? With regards to Lionel train collecting, there are two guides that are published annually-Lionel Price & Rarity Guide and Greenburg's Pocket Price Guide to Lionel Trains. However, keep in mind these price guides only provide a guideline for pricing. The true value of a train depends on the buyer and seller. In other words, how much is the seller willing to offer in order to part with the train and how much is the buyer willing to pay to obtain the item.
There you have it. Not all Lionel trains are the same. Look carefully and you may not only find a small piece of American history, but you may also have an antique collectible sitting in your attic or someone else's garage sale. Even if you're not a model train enthusiast, that train will be worth a pretty penny to a Lionel train collector.

Lionel Asbo (Hardcover) $35.05 An exuberant, acidic satire of modern society and celebrity culture--by a renowned author at the height of his powers.Young Desmond Pepperdine desires nothing more than books to read and a girl to love. Unfortunately for him, he`s the ward of his uncle, Lionel Asbo (self-named after England`s infamous Anti-Social Behaviour Orders), a terrifying yet oddly principled thug who`s determined to teach him the joys of pit bulls (fed with lots of Tabasco sauce), internet porn ("me love life"), and all manner of more serious criminality. But just as Desmond begins to lead a gentler, healthier life, Lionel wins 139 million in the lottery, hires a public-relations firm, and begins dating a cannily ambitious topless model and poet. Strangely, however, Lionel remains his vicious, weirdly loyal self, while his problems as well as Desmond`s seem only to multiply. |

The Shaping of Life By Harrison, Lionel G./ Lyons, Michael $157.72 Biological development, how organisms acquire their form, is one of the great frontiers in science. While a vast knowledge of the molecules involved in development has been gained in recent decades, big questions remain on the molecular organization and physics that shape cells, tissues and organisms. Physical scientists and biologists traditionally have very different backgrounds and perspectives, yet some of the fundamental questions in developmental biology will only be answered by combining expertise from a range of disciplines. This book is a personal account by Professor Lionel Harrison of an interdisciplinary approach to studying biological pattern formation. It articulates the power of studying dynamics in development: that to understand how an organism is made we must not only know the structure of its molecules; we must also understand how they interact and how fast they do so Author: Harrison, Lionel G. Subtitle: The Generation of Biological Pattern Publication Date: 2011/02/14 Number of Pages: 247 Binding Type: Hardcover Language: English Depth: 0.50 Width: 6.00 Height: 9.00 |
