From my collection of vintage racers. Some UFO's, (unidentified FOUND objects), and known lineage. The red die-cast racer is about 7 inches long and is my largest Hubley from the USA. The creme colored white balloon tired racer is a clockwork Tri-ang Minic Motor, post-war model M13 from England. The Fire Bird is a 6 inch pressed steel model racer from Japan, however the maker is unknown. The blue cicada looking racer is totally unknown and I would appreciate anyone's chimes as to it's age, manufacturer and country of origin.

love them-very nice.
I wonder if I could ask about your Hubley. Do you know the year it was made and material or a mold number? I appreciate Hubley and as a result I am interested and wanting to learn more.
It looks like a Hubley #5. Very interesting piece. Do you have the little driver?
Sorry I only got one picture the first time. Now I have four after reloading the page.
