Old Cast Metal Toy Car with Amazing Patina watercolor map heads down tails upAmazing. I'm really not sure how the surface of this old toy car came to be, but it seems entirely product of chance effect. Details give a sense, though it is better in hand. And made all the better I think by feeling very much a sort of a shell of a car there are still axels underneath, and one front and two rear wheels, but it sits very low and you'd really never know. Cast metal. 5 7 8" l x 2 1 4" w x 1 1 2" t. Aged as evident! Stable and sound.
