Toy Town Museum
The Toy Town Museum is located on the Fisher-Price campus in East Aurora, New York. It was conceived by a group of local citizens in East Aurora and Western New York to help celebrate the toy making heritage in the area. There have been over 100 toy companies throughout Western New York over the past 100 years and the museum's exhibitions attempt to educate and entertain visitors.
As of May 2009, the museum is no longer open to the public or located on the Fisher-Price campus, but is seeking a new location.

Famous quotes containing the words toy, town and/or museum:
“I did toy with the idea of doing a cook-book.... The recipes were to be the routine ones: how to make dry toast, instant coffee, hearts of lettuce and brownies. But as an added attraction, at no extra charge, my idea was to put a fried egg on the cover. I think a lot of people who hate literature but love fried eggs would buy it if the price was right.”
—Groucho Marx (1895–1977)
“We’ll free every slave in every town and region. Can anybody get a bigger army than that?”
—Dalton Trumbo (1905–1976)
“A fallen tree does not rise again.”
—Hawaiian saying no. 2412, ‘lelo No’Eau, collected, translated, and annotated by Mary Kawena Pukui, Bishop Museum Press, Hawaii (1983)
