Attention All Toy Show Dealers

The Canadian Toy Collectors' Society invites you to have a table or booth at our 33rd annual "Canada's Greatest Collector's Toy Show".

What is it that brought close to 2000 patrons to our 2004 show?



the warm, friendly atmosphere

a website providing instant answers to Show questions

a mass mail-out of $1.00 off admission postcards or on-line reduced admission passes

excellent electronic security overnight

a steady buyer lineup entering the hall well into mid morning

the ability to buy and sell Friday night at the CTCS swap-meet/social

we invite you to compare table and booth prices. We have the lowest prices for a major Canadian Show

the extra long setup time of 6 hours on Saturday and 2 hours on Sunday

the diverse selection of toys at over 300 tables & booths
the bright lighting making examining purchases easier

the CTCS club display of antique toys and the Corgi manufacturers display
our special edition "Brooklin Show Model"
the ample free parking in the lot and on Skyway Drive
the extensive print and media advertising
the low public admission cost
the fact that the TTC stops right at our door
our international flyer distribution
the San Francisco Bay Brooklin Club meeting and its associated events
the in house snack and luncheon bar
our wide, uncrowded aisles
the friendly atmosphere of a "club-run" Toy Show


Indeed, all these features helped bring out the crowds. Dealers appreciated the six hour Saturday set-up time, the free coffee and donuts, the 3:00 pm closing time on Sunday, and the "One-Stop Parking" for both the Show Hall and nearby hotels.

We invite you to join us for this year's show. Dealers who register and pay in full by September 1st receive a discounted rate. Full dealer information and a show contract are available on-line. Check our show page for details.

If you would like Show flyers for your store or mailouts contact our show committee at:

ctcstoyshow@hotmail.com

or call our Toy Show Phone Line at (905) 851-9606 (evenings)


Please indicate how many flyers we can send you. We can supply pads for your store or loose flyers to put in mailouts or on your tables at other shows. Make sure your local hobby store is well supplied.

Attention Toy Collectors


For 32 years the Canadian Toy Collectors' Society has set the standard for toy show excellence in Canada.C.T.C.S. has consistently lead the way to bigger and better shows and this year we will host our 33rd annual and best show ever.

Located at the Skyway Trade & Conference Center, Canada's Greatest Collector's Toy Show boasts the cleanest and brightest venue with the largest number of dealers and the biggest number of attendees on show day-morning.

In addition, the comfortable lounge area and relaxing cafeteria combined with ample FREE PARKING make it no surprise that dealers and collectors alike make this show their "Number One fall priority". When you add our crew of helpers who assist dealers during move in and set-up, complimentary coffee and donuts and our extensive professional publicity, it is no wonder that our dealer tables are always sold out.

This in turn translates into a wide variety of collectible toys available for the public attending our shows. It is not at all unusual to hear collectors reporting that they found that "rare piece" for their collection at Canada's Greatest Collector's Toy Show .

Complimenting the show we also offer one of the world's most sought after annual limited edition Brooklin Models. Last year's model was sold out well before the show date and this year's model is well on the way to another early sell out. If you haven't ordered your 20045 CTCS 'limited edition' Brooklin Model yet, click on the above link for full model information and your copy of the 2005 model order form.

This year we are holding our 33rd annual toy show, and as part of the show weekend, we are hosting a mini swap meet on Friday October 14th, and have several special events planned for Saturday, October 15th including the San Francisco Bay Brooklin Club Annual Meeting as well as after set-up hospitality suites and room-swap meets. The weekend of October 14-16, 2004 promises to be an event to remember. Plan now to attend. Click on the above link for full details.

When it comes to leading the way there is only one area where we lag behind ... our prices. Our table and show admission rates are lower than comparable shows in the Toronto area. This year's show promises to be our best ever..

Don't miss the premiere fall Toronto area toy show.
Mark the show date of October 16, 2005 on your calendar, and remember there are toy collector's events associated with this show that run the full weekend of October 14 - 16, 2005.
