allcars Posted October 10, 2023 Share Posted October 10, 2023 (edited) Had this for decades, don't remember where it came from. We're not toy collectors, but we must have thought it had a car/truck connection. Note it has at least four different colors of paint on it, only a toy company would do that, right? Wondering if any one recognizes it. Thx! Edited October 10, 2023 by allcars Fix missing closing parens (see edit history) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

7th Son Posted October 11, 2023 Share Posted October 11, 2023 It looks to me like it might be part of a Rube Goldberg Machine toy. Probably circa WWll, pre-plastic when most toys were made from tin. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
