Excellent Little 1921 Handmade Wood and Tin Car redware likely 1880s or soA wonderfully crafted little homemade toy car, dated 1921 on the underside. The incorporation of the tin running along the sides and over the wheels really does it for me, but it is excellent down to every detail, with nail for a steering wheel, a separately carved spare tire nailed to the rear, and wire evincing the outline of a front window. Terrific old dry wood patina too. 3 1 4" l x 1 1 2" w x 1" t and in very good antique condition.
