Wyandotte Toys All Metal Products Company Pressed Steel Wyandotte Trucking Shady Glen Stock Ranch Cattle Semi-Trailer Truck *SOLD*

Wyandotte Toys All Metal Products Company Pressed Steel Wyandotte Trucking Shady Glen Stock Ranch Cattle Semi-Trailer Truck  

We have for you a ca. 1950’s pressed steel Wyandotte Trucking Shady Glen Stock Ranch cattle truck that was manufactured by Wyandotte Toys (All Metal Products Co.) of Wyandotte, Michigan. 

This semi-trailer truck has steel disc wheels that roll smoothly forward when pushed across the floor. The decals are in excellent original condition with the usual scuffs, scratches, and chips that can be seen with age and play. The coupler between the cab and the trailer has been replaced with a new screw. There is some masking tape on the place where it couples at, but we aren’t sure why as there are no cracks or breaks in the metal. 

Our example of this Wyandotte truck is in excellent all original condition with no breaks, restorations, repairs, or touch ups (other than the replaced coupler). The paint and lithography on this is still bright and in excellent overall condition. This piece shows the usual patina, dust, chips, scuffs, surface rust, scratches, and wear that are to be expected from age and play. It has an approximately 17” L. This would be a great and impressive addition to any collection. We invite you to view the photos to further determine quality and condition.
