WYOMISSING, Pa. — People were hoping to turn their old toys into retro gold in Berks County.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The FX Vintage Toy Roadshow stopped in Wyomissing.<\/p>\n
Folks brought in vintage Barbie dolls, “Star Wars” vehicles, dolls and other toys.<\/p>\n
The roadshow’s general manager says the event is about searching for memories and making emotional connections.<\/p>\n
“We want to have a memory when we buy the toy from the person that’s selling to us and we want to have a memory when a person buys it because this is something that they had in their childhood and they want to buy it back and have a nice, fun memory from when they were a child, when they had a lot less stress and a lot less worries,” Mark Leinberger of the roadshow said.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The roadshow is scheduled to be at the Fairfield Inn Allentown West in Upper Macungie Township Monday and Tuesday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"WYOMISSING, Pa. — People were hoping to turn their old toys into retro gold in Berks County.\u00a0 The…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":241881,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[11],"tags":[214,279,128,130,129,213],"class_list":["post-241880","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-reading","tag-_homepage_top_stories","tag-berks","tag-reading-city","tag-reading-city-headlines","tag-reading-city-news","tag-reading-area"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/241880","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=241880"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/241880\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/241881"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=241880"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=241880"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=241880"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
