Ciudad de Mexico: Parque Tolsa

[ Valle de Bravo ]

On the day after my Roma-Condesa stroll (see my previous post) I took the camera out for another short spin—this time to Parque Tolsa, next to the Balderas Metro stop. Each weekend, this tiny park transforms into a mecca for collectors of all stripes, at least all toy-related stripes. Hot Wheels, Barbie Dolls, Beanie Babies, PEZ dispensers, action figures, model sets, and tchotchkes of any character or caricature you could possibly desire are being sold, traded, and customized by fan-boys and -girls in booth after booth. So I chatted with a few folks and took some pictures. Make of them what you will.

Take care y—como siempre—nos vemos,
