HORSE-DRAWN COAL WAGON BY DENT HARDWARE COMPANY. Part of the infamous load of toys Covert Hegarty pulled from the Dent Hardware Company in the late 50’s. The plethora of toys that he purchased were brand new, never been used and this particular toy, as well as several others in the sale are from that load! Single enameled white horse with a red yoke, drawing an enameled green coal wagon trimmed in gold. Not only is the condition of this toy virtually brand new, never been played with, but present is the original tin chute to carry the coal from the rear of wagon into the coal bin of a house or business. SIZE: 15″ l. CONDITION: Almost mint, unplayed-with condition. Toy does have minor chipping or paint flakes from being stored or packaged improperly between the factory and when Covert Hegarty picked these toys up. JL 1-3828 (2,000-2,500)
