The Canadian Toy Collector's Society, with great pleasure, invites you to have a table or booth at our 40^th Annual "Canada's Greatest Collector's Fall Toy Show & Sale". Being the sponsors of the longest running and best established toy shows in Canada we have continually set the standard. Our show management team includes people with credentials and experience in the area of marketing, a very important ingredient when doing advertising and publicity. Last year our Fall show attendance neared 2,000 patrons.

What is it that brought those patrons to our Fall 2011 show?

the setup times on Saturday afternoon and again on Sunday morning

bright hall lighting making examining purchases easier

table and booth prices that are comparable with other major Canadian shows

the friendly atmosphere of a "club-run" Toy Show

the CTCS website providing quick response to Show questions

the knowledge that profits from the show are used to purchase Canadian toys
and maintain them for public viewing and museum use

a mass mail-out of, and on-line access to, $1.00 off admission postcards

a steady buyer lineup entering the hall throughout the show hours

a diverse selection of toys at over 200 tables & booths

the CTCS club display of antique toys and white metal models

easy access to ample free parking

extensive print and media event advertising

the fact that the TTC stops right at our door

our show flyer being distributed internationally

wide, uncrowded aisles alowing customers to browse tables without being jostled by passers-by

Indeed, all these features helped bring out the crowds. Dealers appreciated the Saturday set-up time, the free coffee and donuts and the 3:00 pm closing time on Sunday.

The show will be conveniently located in The Etobicoke Olympium, 590 Rathburn Road, Toronto, Ontario.
Situated just west of Renforth Drive, this facility features excellent lighting, ample free parking and easy access from public transportation.

The hall is easily accessed from all major highways and it is just a short drive away from Toronto's Pearson International Airport. The show venue is also within minutes of hotels such as the Holiday Inn West and the Valhalla Inn, as well as The Bristol Place, Best Western 'Carlton Place' Airport Hotel, the Marriott (Toronto Airport) Hotel, the Constellation Hotel and the Holiday Inn (Airport). and short commute from the Best Western 'Carlton Place' Airport Hotel, the Marriott (Toronto Airport) Hotel, the Constellation Hotel, the Holiday Inn (Airport), and the Bristol Place Hotel.

Dealer set-up will take place from 3pm - 9pm on Saturday October 20^th and 7am - 9am on Sunday October 21^st with normal public admission to the show commencing at 9am Sunday morning.
However, eager collectors will be able to purchase "early floor trading rights" at the door during those times ... so if you are really looking for a rare or unique item for your collection, be sure to take advantage of this great opportunity to browse the show offerings ahead of the rush of the general public.

For our out-of-town visitors who might wish to venture a little further afield, TTC service to downtown Toronto, local toy stores, museums and displays passes the front of the Etobicoke Olympium.
