Yonezawa Giant Bus Friction Powered Toy with Box
Aptly named, the Yonezawa Giant bus offered here comes with its original box and is over 23″ (59 cm) in length. This toy was made in Japan during the 1950’s and is known for being the largest tin bus ever made.
This toy has a few minor scratches but has spent the majority of its life in the box. The friction mechanism is excellent, and the tires have no wear. There are no cracks, breaks or damage to any of the top, side and rear windows and the large, bulbous windshield is perfect. All of the chrome brightwork is crisp.
I would rate the box at 70% due to some wear and tearing at one corner of the box lid. All in all, an excellent addition to your tin collection as the box and toy combination displays wonderfully! No disappointments!
The “Yonezawa Giant Bus Friction Powered Toy” is a notable example of the post-World War II Japanese toy industry’s craftsmanship and innovation. Produced by Yonezawa, one of Japan’s leading toy manufacturers during the mid-20th century, this toy bus showcases the era’s fascination with transportation and mechanical toys. The friction-powered mechanism was a popular feature in many toys of this period, providing a simple yet engaging play experience.
