The Maker Is …
By Steve Butler
BASED ON THE MAKES, years, types and conditions of the items being offered, the seller at the show seemed to be selling all or part of a toy collection, perhaps his own collection. He also seemed to be a new seller as well based on his presentation. His offerings when first spotted should have stopped some buyers, but fortunately that had evidently not occurred thereby making this narrative about two trucks possible.
One pressed steel dump truck was the first item noticed and considered. It was a dump truck that could have been made by a few different makers, but the presence of “WYANDOTTE” embossed on the hardened black wheels seemed to sufficiently identify the maker.
