Price: US $311.06

Description:

LargeArcade cast iron fire pumper truck with a hose reel, driver, and 5 passengers(driver and passengers are apart of the casting). Marked \"CFD\" for Chicago Fire Department. Late 1930s or early 1940s. Seldom do you find a nice big cast iron toylike this with original paint and no cracks, breaks or repairs. This one still has its front bumper intact (oftenbroken off on this particular toy)! Great big toy!

Size:

Approx. 13”long x 5.5” tall x 3” wide – Nice Big Toy!

Condition:

Aboveaverage original paint with losses commensurate with age and light play. There is some mild surface oxidation in theareas of paint loss but no deep pitting or rough spots. No cracks, breaks, or repairs to the castiron. Often you will see this toy with abroken front bumper but this one is intact.The rubber tires are original and in good shape. The brass colored metal bell and clacker havebeen removed on this toy…I can imagine some parents decided to unscrew the metalbell early on if their child was creating a bit too much noise pollution in thehouse. Original nickel plated hose reel with above average nickel plating. The braided rope hose appears tobe a later replacement and the nozzle for the hose is missing. I believe this toy would have originally havehad a plastic or glass windshield…if yes, it is also missing.
