Used Car Market


Here is the Busy Parking Lot in the steel and how about that - it is reversed from the artwork! What a great toy this is. I would have worn the wood off the wheels had I had one of these as a kid. Playing with toy cars was one of my great pastimes. When my first born was a couple years old we dragged out the toy box at Grandma's house. The only little car left was a Tootsietoy Jeep that had only a tiny speck of olive drab paint still showing. I probably put more miles on that car than any car since!

In typical Marx fashion this had to turn up in more than one version. Above we had a green base. Here's a red base.

The Busy Parking Lot. Set up ... Ready to do a whale of a lot of business! What fun you'll have parking the 5 heavy gauge streamline Autos in the spaces marked off just as in real Parking Lots! Keep traffic going on the plainly marked in and out runways - or for emergencies, pull up to the building in the corner where there are gas pumps and a (tool box?).

And only 94 cents!
(What's happened to the value of our money?)
I had heard of this set but it was described quite differently. I believe there might be another variation out there. I'll be satisfied with either!
