Vintage Marx Pressed Steel US Army Toy Truck
1950s, in great condition
- Item # 401382
- Qty Available 1
We had this Marx pressed steel US Army toy truck in our warehouse for over 14 years. It was purchased along with a similar Marx Canadian Army toy truck, which is a much rarer toy in the marketplace, especially when found in good condition.
It is a large toy and in a great condition. From the looks of it, this vintage Marx US Army truck is in unplayed condition. The reason we are making this assumption is that the canopy is in excellent condition, considering it is a 70 years old toy. That would be the first part to take the wear and tear from child play. But you be the judge - we've included high resolution photographs to make an informed decision. It has a few small paint chips and scratches and is missing its cabin horn. One of the rear axel seem to be a bit bent at one of the tires, which makes the tire to to wobble a bit. However, the tire is not loose. We are sure it is an easy fix.
Dimensions: Almost 19 inches long, 6 inches wide, and 9 inches tall.
Many vintage pressed steel toy trucks were produced during the early to mid-20th century, which was a time of rapid industrialization and technological advancement in the United States. Toy trucks from this era are considered somewhat historical artifacts that provide insight into the culture and society of the time.
