This Sanford's Inks display case represents a beautifully preserved piece of early American retail history, featuring original glass, hardware, and pristine advertising labels on three sides. This piece is a wonderful example of how products were marketed and displayed in early American general stores. This cabinet measures approximately 11" x 12" x 16"
This exceptional American National dump truck from the late 1920s represents one of the rarest and finest examples of early pressed steel toys, measuring an impressive 27 inches in length. What makes this piece extraordinary is its fantastic condition for age, retaining its vibrant red and black paint, original rubber tires, and fully functioning hand crank. This quality example embodies American National's brief but significant venture into large-scale pressed steel vehicles, when they competed with industry giants like Buddy L and Steelcraft by producing this faithful miniature of the iconic Mack bulldog truck.
