  • Leader Jumbo Jet Airplane Toy

    $86.25 IL Sales Tax 8%
    See and hear the big bird in action. Watch it load and unload as it prepares for takeoff with roaring sounds and flashing lights. One of my favorite toys to display and operate for family and guests at Christmas, during the 1980's.  This is also one of the first Chinese battery toys to enter the US market. An awesome toy that has only been owned and operated by me!
  • 1940's Lumar Special Hot Rod 777 Super Motor Oil Car wind up and battery car in excellent working played with condition. This toy features our replacement windshield, steering wheel and driver. Install a D cell battery in the bottom of the car, wind it up and watch the engine light bulbs flash as it rolls across the floor.
  • A wonderful 1953 Marusan Kosuge Cadillac friction toy in excellent, fully working condition. A must have for collectors and enthusiasts alike!
  • A wonderful Marusan, Japan Sunbeam Motorcycle with Sidecar battery-operated toy in excellent, fully working condition. The Sunbeam operates with two 'D' cell batteries inserted into the sidecar. The sidecar switch operates the headlight, red license plate, taillight and the front running light. Upon battery insertion and without operating the light switch, power is instantly available to the electric motor to power the bike. The bike operates by switch movement on the gas tank. First gear is slow speed, second gear for higher speed and neutral or 'off'. The front fork is steerable and can be positioned for straight or circular motoring direction. These were very sensitive and fragile toys and most became shelf displays due to mishandling. This toy has been thoroughly checked and adjusted for superior function. Truly a delight and a must have for motorcycle collectors and enthusiasts alike!

  • This 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. This is the last known use of the Yonezawa Champion's Racer stamping dies from the 1960's. Prior to this offering by Wuco, the dies were used by Gem of France, who created and sold the #42 Super Racer. As I have owned and sold all versions of this large toy, this particular example is one of the finest I've ever seen. 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. Arrangements can be made for personal pick up or professional packaging and shipping. The price for this toy is $15000.00 or you are welcome to negotiate an offer.

  • Nylint "Do It Best" Home Improvement Semi Truck and Trailer new in box. The truck's cab is made out of plastic and pressed steel. The trailer is all pressed steel. The side of the trailer reads DO IT BEST home improvement products, Best Quality, Best Value, Best Selection. The side and front of the cab reads DO IT BEST ALL ACROSS AMERICA. I purchased this example from the 'Do It Best', Roselle (Illinois) Lumber Company on Irving Park Road in the late 1990's. There is a special vertical Roselle Lumber magnetic business card attached to the front of the trailer. This almost qualifies as a private label toy, never removed from its original packaging.
  • Nylint Milwaukee Tools Semi Truck and Trailer new in box, #345-Z. The truck's cab is made out of plastic and pressed steel. The trailer is all pressed steel. The tires are branded Firestone. Nylint Toys produced toy semi-truck toys with Firestone branded tires until a major safety recall of real tires prompted discontinued use. Nylint then replaced the Firestone script with their Nylint brand. Nylint Trucks with the Firestone script are now highly sought after because of the controversy surrounding the brand. Our offering comes from Uncle's private collection and is in mint, boxed condition. #345-Z is the designation for special markets. This truck was sold through Berland's House of Tools in Illinois.
