Vintage Fisher Price Precious Places
#5206 Dad at Work 99% Complete
Near Mint/ (D)
In 1989, Fisher Price created a village of collectible houses, accessories, and people that could be manipulated via magnetic keys. They called this village Precious Places. The village was interconnected by special elevated sidewalks that animals, people, and accessories could traverse using the magnetic key. In addition, many of the buildings possessed special features that could be controlled utilizing these magnetic keys (e.g. turn on the lights, manipulate ceiling fans, rock cradles, open doors etc.). Each building and accessory set afforded its own unique key.
Here for your consideration is one, complete add-on accessory set to this "magic world," Precious Places #5206 Dad at Work. This set included a Dad figure with a magnetic base, a yellow and aqua lawn mower, a yellow magnetic key with a litho of Dad on it, and a straight piece of sidewalk. By moving the magnetic key underneath the sidewalk, Dad appeared to walk, turn around, run etc. down the sidewalk. He could also push or pull the lawn mower when his hand was slipped onto the handle of the mower. In my opinion, this set is in NEAR MINT condition. The only thing missing from this offering is the character or personality card.
Note: Due to the number of small parts and the presence of small magnets, these toys were designed for children ages 5 years and up. They DEFINITELY should not be given to children under age 3 as the parts are too small for them to easily manipulate and they pose a choking hazard.
I will be thoroughly Q-tip cleaning this set prior to sending it to its new owners. My sets are IMMACULATE!
This particular offering weighs 2 oz. UNWRAPPED. My location is Lafayette, IN (47905). Due to the size and weight of this offering, I will probably be sending it via the USPS (e.g. First Class mail).
I'm more than willing to combine auctions to save the buyer on shipping. Please note that if the package ends up weighing over 13 oz., I will need to send the box via Parcel Post or Priority Mail.
If you do elect to purchase multiple items, PLEASE combine your purchases onto one INVOICE. Otherwise, I get charged multiple PayPal transaction fees and it prevents me from printing out a shipping label using PayPal. Thank you for your cooperation in this matter.
