Vintage Metal Sand Pails & Sand Shovels

Remember these good old metal sand pails when you were a kid? Sand pails and shovels are so popular right now. I bought my first pail to keep my paint brushes and colored pencils in.

Below are a couple cute old photos of kids with sand pails! -- look at that “tall” shovel wowie!

If you are interested in collecting these colorful containers from the past, I would suggest you try eBay first, that’s your best bet. They are getting harder and harder to find.

I used to get mine for $10-15.00 each but now they can go for hundreds of dollars. If you want a good book on these neat old pails see the bottom of this page for a “TIP”

TIP:
The book “Pails by Comparison, Sand Pails & Other Sand Toys, A Study and Price Guide” by Carole and Richard Smyth is an excellent reference book. Each page has large colored pictures!
