Description :
A rustic and nostalgic collection of vintage metal toy vehicles, likely dating from the 1950s to 1970s, when pressed steel and tin toys ruled the sandbox. These sturdy playthings were crafted by iconic makers such as Tonka, Buddy L, Structo, or Nylint, known for their realistic designs and durable construction. Whether modeled as dump trucks, fire engines, or delivery vans, each vehicle carries the patina of play and the charm of mid-century childhood. These toys were built from heavy-gauge steel or tin, often hand-painted and fitted with rolling wheels, and they now serve as collectible relics of industrial design and Americana. Ideal for display, restoration, or gifting to collectors, this lot offers a tangible link to the golden age of imaginative play.
