Pyro U.S. Army Ferry Boat - OD HP

Here's a cool little boat from Pyro, the U.S. Army Ferry Boat. Hanlon's "PLASTIC TOYS Dimestore Dreams of the '40s &'50s" says this was made from the late '40s 'til the early '50s. The olive drab hard plastic boat rolls on land and floats on water. I've seen these in multiple, bright color schemes as well so they performed civilian as well as military duty! It measures 7 1/2" (19.05cm) L x 2 3/4" (6.98cm) W x 3" (7.62cm) H and includes four tiny U.S. Army staff cars. Enjoy! Opa Fritz and Oma Bettina

    1. This was a 'put-together' set assembled from several different purchases. However, marked and unmarked (star white, star OD, or no star on roof) are all correct for the set from what I gather. It's nice to be able to see an entire set all at one place
