Fire Chief Carriage - Cast Iron Toy
Rare Nickel Plated Specimen. Made by the Shimer Toy Company. Pennsylvania - Circa 1895 - 15 1/2" Long. For the most part, nickel plated toy carriages were made only during the mid 1890's, an era commonly referred to as the Gilded Age. Such toys were relatively expensive because the nickeling process was far labor intensive than a simple painted finish.
Condition: Excellent Plus Condition.
