This is a Kansas Toy & Novelty Co. plane from the 1930's. It is a slush cast made toy with a tin propeller. This version is the eight window Army Air Corp issue measuring 3-3/4 in long with a 3 inch wing span. Paint is all original.

Nice little plane!
Thanks!
I just picked up another version of this plane over the weekend, these are really neat! Mine has a cast prop and an odd unpainted finish (when new it would have mimicked the brightly chromed planes). The wheels are still painted though.
Nice! That sounds like the Anodized finish. I have several farm tractor and implements like that.
