Welcome to the collection of Joe Iazzetta Owner: Joe Iazzetta, Long Island, NY E-mail: JOEZETA@aol.com, Website: http://gijoe1964.com/index.html Welcome to my collection. GIjOE is my favorite toy of all time. I grew up with Joe in the mid-to-late 1970's. Up until about 18 years old, I still had all the ones I played with as a kid. Then, one day I was bitten by the "car bug" and sold them all for a few dollars at one of my mom's garage sales. Fast forward to 7 years later-- I began thinking about GIjOEs again when I saw the re-issues appearing at a local store. After buying a couple, I went on a quest.--to find the original Joes I had played with as a kid. Like others, I scoured flea markets, antique shops, etc...picking up a few here and there. I have NOT stopped collecting since that time, and as you can see, my collection kept growing and growing! Care to add to it? Do you have any old Joes that you'd like to turn into moolah? Send me a e-mail. As you can see, I will give them a good home and return them to their former G.I.-Glory! ---Joe Iazzetta A serious collection like this requires a SERIOUS display case. This is like Fort Knox! All vintage, all authentic. No repros or modern figures need apply. This Machine Gun set is in fantastic original condition. Great package graphics. Joe's collection includes ultra-rare pre-production Joes and a cloth sailor cap that all were made for "Toyfair 1964." All have brass rivets. Note that the copyright info was hand-stamped onto the back of the figures. Amazing special value footlockers that most of us will never see in person. And look, the AT locker on the right is still in its original shrink-wrap! This is a fantastic collection. Many items are incased in plexi boxes AND placed inside glass cabinets. On the left, you have five original "squishy head" Joes, and on the right, a rare AS with MPs and SPs. Sam Speers authenticated this lead casting of vintage binoculars and autographed the card as well! Here's a close-up of a boxed set most of us will NEVER see in person. So, enjoy! Yes, these are all originals too. And that's an original uniform set (still sealed). WHOA! More 1:6 Scale Collections Return to Collections Index And Don't Miss...
