(NASHVILLE) - An Brown County toy company says the string of recalls of mass-marketed toys made in china probably won’t affect his business one way or the other.

Homestead Toys owner specializes in old-fashioned early American toys such as tops, wooden whistles and yo-yo's.

Owner George Rice says he sells primarily to museum gift shops, including Conner Prairie and the Eiteljorg Museum.

His toys are made in Nashville, so the recall doesn't affect him... and Rice says his customer base isn't likely to change.
