I\'m selling a terrific tin friction 1950\'s outer space sightseeing bus made by Masudaya of Japan. The bus measures 6 3/4 inches or a little over 17 centimeters long and it is complete and all original. The bus is in excellent, lightly played with condition. This is a marvelously detailed space vehicle in very good condition. The bus has a great driver in excellent shape. The clear plastic canopy or dome covering the pilot is in excellent condition with a few small scratches and some minor wear but nothing at all major. The litho is in excellent condition, sharp and clear and the colors are strong and vivid. The surface of the tin has a really nice gloss. It is interesting because one side of the bus has a misspelling of the word \"seeing\" on one side of the bus while the other side in exactly right. There are a few small scratches and tiny chips in the paint and if the bus once sparked, it now needs a new flint. It isn\'t perfect but this is a marvelous tin friction space toy. The last photo shows the bus in the middle of the group assortment as pictured on page 190 of the terrific book Modern Toys From Japan 1940-1980.
