NCCHP Research Library Welcomes First Researcher

Recently Bob Watrous, a leading expert in bell toys (known in collector circles as the Belltoyboy), became the first researcher to visit the new NCCHP Research Library. Bob wrote an excellent overview of his visit, along with many pictures of rarely seen corners of the Noble & Cooley facility in Granville. His report is posted on Facebook and you can view it by CLICKING HERE.

Although the Research Library remains a work in progress with a great deal of work remaining to collect and organize the extensive Noble & Cooley archives, we were pleased to welcome Bob and open the archives for his research (the NCCHP Research Library is open by appointment only).

Bob is an avid toy collector. His particular expertise is in bell toys, as evidenced by his excellent web site at http://belltoys.ning.com/ and Facebook page,

 How was the visit? More fun than a barrel of bells!
