Cleaning up the yard

[ModernMiner]

Short and sweet post. Yesterday before the snow (slight dusting ) I stopped by the house where I dug the 1864 IH and detected a few hours before it got dark. Found a few tidbits. Nothing special.
The toy Matchbox car made me laugh after I cleaned it up a bit. It still has the driver, and a dog in the back seat.
The wheat is a 1956.
Have a good one,
MM

Thanks Chris.
Yep, it's a lipstick tube. It feels full too. I couldn't find any writing on it though.
No 64' IH this time.

This car is green and has a cream interior. It has a figure in the driving seat and a dog on the back seat.


It is made of die-cast metal and plastic.


It was made by Lesney Products & Co. Ltd. in England in the 1960s.

Thanks Savant.
I was figuring 1960's. The owner said there was a sand play are in the back yard and the kids loved Hotwheels (and Matchbox) cars. I would love to find a 68' Firebird. One of my faves.

1956

Ferrous,
My camera is a fossil. It's a Sony Mavica that holds a 3 1/2" floppy disk, but it shoots great pictures. It's excellent at closeups.

Joe,
I knew I'd hear from you. I can't wait to open the lipstick up to see what color it is. It will be like Christmas all over again.
