The Schylling Farm Tractor and Trailer features sturdy construction and a classic design — a terrific everyday plaything or great addition to any collection.
The period of 1850–1950 was the golden age for tin toys — by the 1970s tin toys were being displaced by those made of plastic and die-cast metal. The Schylling Farm Tractor and Trailer offers a retrospective view on toy history — no electronics or nano action, just pure toy function, all by itself.
The appealing qualities of tin are all present in this piece distributed by Schylling — bright colors, folded-tab construction and lithographic printing. This model features a wind-up motor with a manual three-speed transmission plus reverse. Nimble front suspension handles any terrain, and a handbrake is included for emergency stops or a pause in the farm routine.
Rubber tires and an all-metal body, chassis and steering gear complete this model made in the Czech Republic.
