Hardy Chemical & Plastics Corp. Hay Wagon - Green/Red HP

Here's the last of three Hardy Wagons I bought not long ago off fleaBay. This Hay Wagon was missing all four stake sides, but fortunately another seller had all four intact sides and an additional driver figure for sale.10 1/2" (26.67cm) L x 3 1/2" (8.89cm) W x 2 3/8" (6.03cm) H to top of rails Enjoy!

Hardy Chemical & Plastics Corp. Covered Wagon - Green/Red HP

Here's the second of three Hardy wagons purchased recently. Like I said in yesterday's post, because there was only one intact hitch I used it for all three photo essays. Also, there are a couple of pieces missing from this. The first is a driver's seat which has two figures and is placed inside the wagon just behind the front of the wagon bed. The second is the rear hatch.  These wagons came in a wide variety of color combinations and could very well be the basis of an extensive collection. The wagon measures 9 1/2" (24.13cm) L overall x 3" (7.62cm) W x 3 7/8" (9.84cm) H. Enjoy! Opa Fritz

The rear hatch which is missing on my sample

Notice the large gap in the two halves of the wagon cover. I have never seen a Hardy covered wagon without that gap!

CIRCUS TIME: Hardy Plastics & Chemical Corp. Circus Wagon No. 22 - Green with Yellow Wheels and OB

okay okay, last Hardy wagon  LOL

This time I have one with the original box. So far we've seen red and green versions of the wagon and it wouldn't surprise me if other colors were offered, after all, this was sold at a time when brightly colored toys were the order of the day. Enjoy! Opa Fritz

I love it when the original price tags are still on the boxes. Check it out: 69¢  at Woolworth's!

CIRCUS TIME: Hardy Plastics & Chemical Corp. Circus Wagon No. 22 - Red with Yellow Wheels

 Here's another Hardy circus wagon with slightly different colors. The body is red like the last one posted and intact, but the wheels on this one are yellow while the horses are a marbled gray/white. Enjoy! Opa Fritz
