This month’s vintage highlight features every kid’s favorite thing: toys! Here you will find three vintage classics that Pickle Barrel has for the collectors out there.
Wyandotte Toys Helicopter
Wyandotte toys (pre-WWII) are highly sought after because of their durability. The toys are made from solid metal and often remain in good condition.
This particular helicopter was made in the early 1930s as one of the first non-gun toys provided by Wyandotte. The company was dominating the toy gun market and wanted to diversify their product lines to include girls’ products and vehicles.
The helicopter is in really great condition; it’s only missing a rear propeller. Buy it here at Pickle Barrel today for only $130.00!
Yoshiya KO Windup Space Explorer
Kobo Yoko LTD was a famous Japanese toy company from 1950-1970 that created sci-fi inspired toys. They specialized in wind-up and mechanical products that stirred the imagination of children and adults alike.
The wind-up Space Explorer is one of their more famous models, other than their classic knock-offs of Robby the Robot. The model we have here at Pickle Barrel is in excellent condition with all parts and original paint intact. Buy it online or in store for $200.00!
1930s Joustra Backflip Monkey
Joustra is a classic company famous for the mass production of tin toys. The monkey presented here was one of their first products from the early 1930s. This classic backflip monkey won the hearts of kids all throughout the world.
The company eventually began to create educational games, scientific and experimental sets, and plastic toys. Joustra was purchased in 1999 and moved to Normandy where certain products are still manufactured. (Source: http://www.fabtintoys.com/joustra/)
