Electric motor still works and has gear reduction built in. Comes with 15 pages of instruction that shows a large number of items that can be made. Made in 1959

Tootsietoy Tractor

Made in 1970 and tractor is in good condition with its' hitch. Tractor still rolls great. The length is 3.5" inches.

Slinky

The classic original walking spring toy. Slinky mint in the packaging. Normally Slinky is packaged in a box, so I don't know the age. Factiod: Slinky began in 1945 as an accident at first, when an engineer accidentally dropped the research item and noticed it walked on the floor. Then it became an American Icon to toys and fun.

Made in 1931 and is in very good condition. Click on picture for a better view. Cast iron race car about 10.75" inches in length. Wheels still roll well. There is some slight rust on the wheels. The front axle is eccentric on purpose. Because this piece not only rolls, but when it does, the eccentric on the front axle drives the front smoke stacks up and down and the driver from side to side. Shipping weight is about 3.5 pounds. Hubley stamped by the rear axle.

A very rare and hard to find Hubley. I can't find any reference to this piece. Piece is around the 1950's judging from other Hubley rear wheel spoke types. Oily, which is a good thing, it kept the rust from developing on the piece. It has a gear reduction system with levers made out of brass. Has cast iron tires. Piece is in very good to excellent condition with lack of a good cleaning. Piece weighs eight pounds. Steering wheel turns and front wheels turn. All wheels roll nicely.
