1926-31 Arcade Mfg. Co. International Harvester Truck No. 2
This is a toy that belonged to my grandfather. My father and his siblings would later play with the truck. As a child I was permitted to play with it. My grandfather kept it on the large hearth of his fireplace. We grandchildren were allowed to push it around the hearth and nearby floor.
Thanks for reading!
