1920's Buffalo Toys Hy-Lo Ferris Wheel, No. 53 The Buffalo Toys Hy-Lo Ferris Wheel was the very first Ferris Wheel toy known to be produced in the United States. The toy was produced from the mid to late 1920's. The toy was created to resemble The Great Ferris Wheel, built for the 1893 World Fair. The toy has six revolving carriages, and each car is shown with eight people in the standing position, which was how passengers were carried in the Great Ferris Wheel. The toy is all tin and utilizes a spring and twisted metal rod propulsion system. As the twisted rod is pulled straight up through the trap doors, tension from the spring pulls the rod back down into the tower, turning the two-inch gear and spinning the wheel. Buffalo Toys used this mechanism in several of their other toy offerings. This Ferris Wheel has been in my personal collection for several years and is in very fine condition for a 100-year-old toy!

The ammo automatically returns for continued play. The toy has had some paint touch-ups but was very well done.

Out of stockThis RARE, Wuco Racer comes from the private collection of a dear friend who has been collecting toy cars for over 50 years. This is a nearly flawless, RARE race car and is 100% all original. The friction motor mechanism is strong and smooth. It is huge at 20" in length and 7" high to the top of the driver's helmet.

Zero disappointments and an absolute 'must have' for the serious Indy car collector. Additional photos will be provided to interested buyers. Please feel free to ask. Due to the nature of this item, interested buyers need to contact me for purchase. Payment may be made by cash, good personal check, money order / cashier’s check or bank wire transfer ONLY.
