Vintage large scale scratch built toy vehicles.

1940's Lorry and pick-up truck

A charming pair of large scratch built wooden toy vehicles. From the streamlined styling we would date these vehicles to the 1940's/50's a time of austerity when toys were in short supply. We imagine these stylish vehicles were handcrafted by a father or grandfather as a Christmas or birthday present.

They have been well loved and come in a play worn condition, exactly as they should be !. Obviously they will not conform to any present day safety standards and so are sold as display items only. The red and green colours are particularly appropriate for Christmas displays (see the pears for scale!).

The large articulated lorry has a smart red cab with attractive radiator fin details, its pay-load is crafted from bent plywood and slots neatly onto a peg behind the cab. A flap gives access to the back for storage..

The pick up truck is a little more rustic in construction but features a working swivelling winch and fabulous carved wooden tread to the tyres. The dark green cab has aluminium radiator fin detail.and a perspex windscreen.
