Featured are wonderful Toys called Tootsietoy Vehicles.
- Toys are objects that we play with for fun.
- Tootsietoy is a manufacturer of die cast toy cars and other toy vehicles which was originally based in Chicago, Illinois.
- The Tootsietoy name has been used since the 1920s but the company’s origins date from about 1890.
- Tootsietoys were usually simply made – often with only seven parts: a single diecast metal body, two axles, and four wheels. Arms protruding from the underside of the body were pinched around the axles after the wheels were added, which held wheels and axles in place.
- The first actual model car from the company was produced between 1909 and 1911.
- One was a closed limousine which was followed by a 1915 Ford Model T open tourer.
- These toys are perfect for collectors or someone just looking for some memories from their childhood!
