Japan Tin Toy Car, Shudo Emergency Wagon
Friction powered, made in Japan by Shudo, 1960s. Scarce.
- Item # 470444
- Qty Available 1
Newly added for sale to our website is a scarce Shudo Emergency Wagon, tin litho, friction powered. It's a Ford Rescue Van. The vehicle is near mint unplayed condition with a few hairline scratches and absolutely gorgeous colors. The box is solid, crisp, and complete with a small patch missing on one of its sides. Both issues highlighted in the photographs. 7.5 inches in length.
It's made in 1960s and it is highly collectible. Many tin toys from that period were produced in limited quantities, as manufacturing capabilities were still recovering. This scarcity increased their desirability among collectors. Additionally, during the 1950s and 1960s, Japan focused more on producing cheaper plastic toys, making the tin toys from that era relatively rare.
