BUDDY L WRECKING TRUCK.The classic 1920s Buddy L wrecking truck was perfect for the young boy who came to the assistance of his brother’s broken down delivery truck by means of an elaborate geared winching system. Employing several die cast gears, which often deteriorate with age. The gears on this particular truck were replaced some time ago, allowing operation of the winch. The truck itself, other than the gears, appears to be all original and in very good condition including the pulley hook assembly at the rear of the boom. Truck also maintains what appears to be its original cord pull string attached to the front axles. Enameled in black with a deep red chassis and a slightly brighter red body. Paint is good to very good with oxidation spots most noticeable to cab and fender area. Overall a nice clean example. SIZE: 28″ l. CONDITION: Some alligatoring to paint, particularly on rear step. 1-13990 (1,750-2,750) – Lot 3386 Auction: Advertising, Toy & Doll - Spring 2014 Please Note: All prices include the hammer price plus the buyer’s premium, which is paid by the buyer as part of the purchase price.
