It's A Small World After All: Kellogg's Corn Flakes 1956-57 Fire Engine Set - Kellogg's Fire Dept. (K.F.D.) - Hook & Ladder Truck

If memory serves me right, this was the toy I had as a kid. Isn't it amazing that a toy so small and simple can still bring back happy memories decades after the original was gone? Enjoy! Opa Fritz

Keystone Fire Station No. 247 1950 - Marx look-alike - Redux - Pt 4

So here's the last of the Keystone Manufactuirng Co. Fire Station with Burning Building set. This Hook-&-Ladder truck uses the same body casting as the pumper featured yesterday and it too is a rare survivor of Keystone's power launch feature! Enjoy! Opa Fritz and Oma Bettina

Tootsietoy No. 4652 Hook and Ladder Fire Truck 1927- 1933

The fire and emergency vehicle fleet continues to grow, albeit at a smaller pace, with this nifty Tootsietoy No. 4652  Hook and Ladder Fire Truck w/gilt wheels and 3 ladders made from 1927- 1933. This diminutive gem measures only 3 3/4" (9.52cm) L x 1 1/4" (3.17cm) W x 1 1/4" (3.17cm) H. It's a perfect fit for some of the smaller vintage cardboard fire stations we've posted here on the blog and as time permits I'll post pics of the truck posed along with one of them. Enjoy!
