MUSEO DEL JUGUETE ANTIGUO MEXICO

Based in the Doctores area of Mexico City  MUJAM is the unparalleled collection of literally hundreds of thousands of items put together by its dedicated and obsessive owner Roberto Shimizu and his sons. No amount of film or photography does it justice, it has to be seen to be believed. Not simply an old toy museum as its name suggests, it is more a museum of nostalgia, recapturing a time that we are in danger of losing forever. 

In the huge building that houses the collection, one floor is dedicated to Lucha Libre, not only toys and games and models of the luchadores, but an excessive amount of Lucha Libre memorabilia which must be of great interest to any wrestling fan.
