The Morning of Saturday, August 3rd, we will bid farewell to a unique legacy collection of American toys and banks: The Haradin Family Collection. A magnificent and richly historical archive, it spans multiple generations of a family whose roots are deeply embedded in two communities: their native Pittsburgh and the borderless realm of antique toy and bank collecting. This auction hits especially close to home for us because the Pittsburgh clan that built the collection includes our lifelong friend and colleague Ray Haradin, the "R" of RSL Auction Company. The Afternoon of Saturday, August 3rd we will be selling the world class paper lithography collection of Carl & Linda Thomas of Bluefield, WV. Included are many fantastic skittle and knockdown sets, about 15 sets of paper litho trains and about 15 to 20 paper litho horse drawn toys. Also included in this sale is a selection of still banks, penny toys, and the Kobe Toy Collection of Ron & Sandy Rosen.

William Tell Bank
Made by the J. & E. Stevens Company. Cromwell, Connecticut - Circa 1897. The folk narrative of William Tell was first mentioned in an illustrated Swiss chronicle from the late 15th century. Tell, who was a renowned marksman with the crossbow, was condemned to death along with his son Robert for refusing to bow when an Austrian prince from the Hapsburg family passed by. However, the prince offered him redemption in the form of a dare. If he could shoot an apple from his son's head, freedom would be theirs.
