1 rich Libsyn https://www.libsyn.com 90 600 Discover a world of childhood wonder and Route 66 nostalgia right in the heart of Oklahoma! In this episode of the Only in OK Show, we’re pulling over at a true hidden gem: The Bristow Vintage Toy Museum (located at 118 N Main St, Bristow, OK). This isn't your average corporate exhibit—it’s a 50-year dream brought to life by owner Bret Fadely, featuring a massive, jaw-dropping collection where 99% of the items come straight from Bret’s personal lifelong archive. Whether you're planning the ultimate Route 66 road trip or just looking for a nostalgic Sunday drive, this passion project is a must-visit. Following Bret’s retirement, the museum is now his full-time gig, and it operates entirely on a donation basis with one simple mission: to share joy and make people happy. Episode Highlights: Meet &quot;Howdy&quot;: Keep an eye out for the museum's official face—a beloved character Bret has been drawing for 45 years! Bells Amusement Park Relics: A massive hit for Tulsa locals, featuring an original airplane, pedal cars, and a classic bumper car with a hilarious backstory. TG&amp;amp;Y Nostalgia: A deep-cut Oklahoma throwback featuring a vintage TG&amp;amp;Y truck that every local gravitates toward. Photo Ops &amp;amp; Rare Finds: From a giant dragster kids can climb inside for the perfect Instagram moment, to 100-year-old tin cars, classic action figures, and vintage dolls. Plan Your Visit: Address: 118 N Main St, Bristow, OK 74010 Admission: By Donation (Labor of love!)
