The National Museum of Toys and Miniatures

Part of Dr. Thomas Bradbeer's collection is on temporary display at The National Museum of Toys and Miniatures.

Have a yabba-dabba-doo time with this live virtual discussion featuring longtime Hanna-Barbera collector Dr. Thomas Bradbeer. Bradbeer will share how he began collecting, discuss how he manages and preserves his extensive collection, and provide tips on how to best preserve your own collection.

After serving 25 years in the United States Army, Bradbeer earned a PhD in history from the University of Kansas and now spends his days as a college professor, teaching organizational leadership to military officers at the Army’s prestigious Command and General Staff College.

Bradbeer credits his interest in Hanna-Barbera to growing up watching Saturday morning cartoons in the 1960s and 70s with his two brothers. He began collecting all things Hanna-Barbera in 1989 and has since amassed more than 500 artifacts.

Meet the Experts: Hanna-Barbera will be hosted by Bradbeer’s daughter, Samantha Bradbeer, historian at Hallmark Archives and an avid Archie Comics collector.
