  • 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.

The toy is complete with box inserts. It operates on 2 'D' cell batteries (not included) and features bump n go action. This is a beautiful mint condition toy fresh from my personal collection and is sure to please! The Double Decker Bus is a wonderful example of the standard mode of transportation of the early 20th century. The Double Decker Bus was and still is commonly used for tourism in America as well as Europe. This toy bus has many features such as mystery action, sounding horn and engine sound  and funny shaking action as it rolls on its journey. This marvelous toy has never been out of the box and never seen a battery since the factory. As good as these toys get!

  • Pumpkin Hollow Rubber Bat with 30" Wingspan originally sold by Menards who provided a huge variety of Halloween decorations for many years that are now highly sought after by decorators and collectors alike.  The Pumpkin Hollow Rubber Bat was purchased in a case of four back in 2005 and I just opened the box for this listing. These magnificent, large latex posable Halloween bats have been kept in my climate controlled inventory since purchased and are still perfectly fresh as new! There is nothing of this quality currently available. This super large rubber bat is a great addition to your Halloween collection. It has a 30" wingspan and comes with the nylon suspension harness already attached for hanging. Simply the best! These bats came 4 to a case. I'm selling all individually but one to keep. This listing is for ONE bat.
  • This is a brand new exact reproduction of the Pyro X-300 Space Cruiser manufactured by Uncle Al's Toys. A complete original toy was disassembled and molds were made of the individual pieces. As with the original, it features rolling wheels and an astronaut figure. These spaceships can be made in any color combination and more will be available here and on Ebay. The Pyro X-300 Space Cruiser is a beautiful, classic 1950's design that has withstood the test of time in it's popularity. Many different companies across the globe have taken this rocket and added there own design elements. Kleeware and Tudor Rose are two companies that offered this toy in color varieties. T. Cohn offered the rocket with their tin Space Port that would launch the rocket out of the garage and across the floor. Values continue to climb on original toys, making them somewhat unaffordable to new collectors which is why I decided to recreate the toy for those collectors. I will be making other X-300 variations myself with features such as battery operated lighting and friction/sparking drive.

  • A Smoky Bear remote-control, battery-operated toy made by SAN Co. (Marusan) of Japan in the 1950s. Smoky has 4 actions. He walks forward while raising and lowering his pipe. The pipe lights up and he exhales smoke from his mouth. The battery box is clean!  The body is plush with tin litho parts and accessories. Check out the video of this marvelous toy. As with many American copywritten, iconic names and institutions, Smokey the Bear was not immune from shameless hustle. Marusan got around the legal aspects of this by removing the 'e' from the Smokey name and by labeling the toy's hat with the word 'Pioneer', all the while mimicking the Smokey the Bear full wardrobe, complete with shovel! The ultimate in irony, Smoky Bear has a light up pipe and blows smoke like a chimney!
  • Here is a nice set of replacement rubber grips for your Marusan Sunbeam motorcycle toy. These grips were reproduced from molds taken of original rubber grips and then re-cast in rubber for a perfect, tight fit and an exact reproduced part for authenticity.

All of the pictures you see here are of the new replacement part, not an original. The metal castings are filed, sanded and lightly polished. I haven't tried plating them yet as they looked quite appropriate in the lightly polished bare metal state. Protect the integrity and value of your clock by reinstalling a REAL METAL replacement tail wheel. This is a bare metal casting and is NOT plated. *Please note that the Sessions Airplane Clock shown is my personal clock and is shown for reference only and is not included or for sale. You will receive ONE TAIL WHEEL ONLY.

  • Replica Knockoff Spinner for Exclusive Sears Indy 500 Turnpike Racers Replica Knockoff Spinner for the Exclusive Sears Indy 500 Turnpike Racers - This listing is for new, white metal reproduction knockoff spinners for the Sears Exclusive battery operated Indianapolis 500 Race Car or the Sears Turnpike  Line friction racer and the Sears Indy 500 friction racer. These three toys utilize the same master cast spinner but have different threaded diameters. The battery operated spinner has a smaller diameter hole than the friction cars so PLEASE SPECIFY which spinner you need when you purchase. The white metal castings are a bit softer and the wings are a bit thicker than the originals but as you can see, they look and work great. Holes come drilled and tapped so all you have to do is put them on your cars. Please also note that these are fabricated to mount on original car threaded studs. If someone has broken the original studs and replaced with an aftermarket screw, these will not work. When viewing the pictures, the white Indy 500 car is sporting the new knockoffs. The green Turnpike racer has original cast spinners. Note the larger mounting stud of the Turnpike car. These parts are in stock and ready to go.
