  • New in original plain box. A 1920s style, polished aluminum ashtray measures about 3.5” x 5.75”. A great collectible most likely made in the Prohibition Era. Selling AS IS since the age is unknown, but assuming during the 1950's. There are many versions of this novelty available in different metals, ceramics and Bakelite. I acquired this particular item from the Pomona, California Hot Rod Swap Meet in the early 1980's.
  • Ford Gas-Turbine Van Friction Motor by M.K.K. Powered by a friction motor. Quality construction, heavy gauge metal. A nicely constructed reproduction box. Known as the Ford Gas Turbine, Experimental Superhighway Truck, this vehicle was designed to be the cutting edge of hauling transportation efficiency in 1964. It featured 600 H.P. and a cruising range of 600 miles. Our featured toy is in lightly played with condition, strong friction motor and opening rear trailer door. It's missing one light from the roof of the trailer (at the moment. I'll see if I can find it or make a new replacement.) This is an extremely collectible toy and had to come by in such nice shape.
  • Thimble-Drome Curtiss Pusher by L.M. Cox. The 1911 vintage style, engine powered airplane is a ready to assemble flying model. Complete with a T-D babe bee engine. The Thimble-Drome Curtiss flying model was only produced for one year, (1960/61) due to its delicate nature and inability to survive smooth landings. The model kits came with a parts re-ordering form that I assume was used extensively by model flyers! One of my favorite all-time kits that is extremely well made and has excellent detail. The pilot figure comes with lead weights that fit inside his legs and acts as the counterbalance to the power of the gas, .029 engine. This kit is becoming exceedingly rare to find in any condition, but this kit offered is 100%original, including the decal sheet. I offer replacement waterslide decals for this model elsewhere on our site.
  • A Gemmy Triumph the Insult Comic Dog Plush Toy in the box. Press his foot and listen to Triumph's insults as he moves his mouth to the words. This Gemmy Original features Synchro-Motion, a cutting-edge animation technology that synchronizes the motion of the mouth to words or songs, allowing an inanimate figure to come to life before your eyes. A great novelty toy for your collection or as a gift.
  • An extremely rare, in this condition, 1960s B & B Traffic Signal Bar Lamp, new in the box. The lamp is approximately 19" tall and has 3 light settings. Quality construction with corded electrical and a knob switch on the front to operate. A great novelty piece for your home bar or as a party decoration. This item has been in my personal collection for many years. I searched to find this perfectly mint, unused and unopened relic for a long time. You don't find these better than this! Bagged with crisp, original plating, this beauty is ready for display in OR out of the box. This has only been out for these pictures. Enjoy!  
  • The Carousel Texaco Gas Pump Gumball Machine Bank looks like a vintage style Texaco gas pump. Quality construction, made of die cast metal with a safe plastic globe. The bank stands 21" tall and the globe on top lights up. The globe is battery powered and works. The globe holds up to 1.5 lbs of gumballs or other types of treats like candy or peanuts. The coin mechanism accepts pennies, nickels, dimes and quarters. Or set it for free dispensing. This item is new and was opened only to photograph and verify light function. This is an excellent collectible for your Texaco oil enthusiast or gas and oil memorabilia collector!
  • Made in Japan. An old family favorite and an excellent Holiday gift! Santa rings his bell to usher in the Christmas spirit!
