My quick research puts them as 20s era, as the Star Cars were only produced in the mid-20s by Durant Motors. 36w x 24h. Baltimore enamel, 200 fifth age ny at bottom right. Both are heavy porcelain, nearly 20 lbs each. Any help in valuing would be greatly appreciated Last edited by Mitchtr25068; Sun Oct 19 2014 02:41 PM.

Check on Liveauctioneers... here's a nice one that sold for $800 [img]http://www.liveauctioneers.com/item/24094623_star-cars-authorized-service[/img] Given that, figure you're in the $400-600 range. Collecting anything keeps you young at heart!
