Presumed Mettoy (early Corgi) Tractor
Tractor by Mettoy (pre-Corgi). Scarce issue in scarlet & green. Large tinplate model. Working clockwork function. Made in Gt. Britain on one side . Near mint/unboxed. From The Denis Tyler Collection. Starting bid £50. Please note that QDT apply 12.5% buyer's commission.
Notes
Brightly-coloured tinplate Tractor model measures approx. 23 cms. in length. With delightful detailed celluloid famer with articulated arm. Crank handle at the front is purely for noise only (i.e not intended ‘to start the engine’).
Winding handle is located in one of the rear wheels and this clockwork mechanism works well. Note the residue of old application of ‘tyre tread’ at some time. Some remains and may be possible to fully remove. Light wear besides.
