Saved an old Tricycle

[sirlostalot]

Pulled this out of a dumpster. Its rough but I still like it. Trying to figure out who made it and how old it is.

That is a very cool find. Will you restore it after you find out the maker.

That's not rough...that's called character.

 

[sirlostalot]

I think I will leave it as is.

Some one on another forum said he found it in a reference book "Riding Toys". He tells me it's a 1937 Toledo standard tricycle made by American National.

If it were restored, it'd be worth quite a bit of $$.

Great find!!

Good! I can only be in original state once in it's life. I like it like that

Oh man! Do you still have this? This one is the primitive form. Any clue about make and model?

I don't recall ever seeing a Dumpster Diving banner.

My vote is in! This may very well be the only surviving example.

Yes I still have it but my wife's trying to get it from me. If you look up a couple of post it will tell you what it is.
