Das Bulli Haus

This is an antique Flywheel Racer made by Dayton. It has a crank on the front which drives the rear wheels. There is a spring on the shaft, and my understanding is that it should be a wind-up type action, but it does not do that anymore. It has gone through a complete restoration at some time in it's life, and there are some flaws. There is some wax residue here and there, especially where the fenders are. There is some dirt and dust from storage. It measures about 12" long. M593

This is an antique Schieble Pullman train car. It has the cut-outs of people in the windows and they are all still there and in decent shape. There are tabs on each end of the train to attach to other cars. It measures about 13" long at the base and about 6 1/2" tall. It is missing one axle set. There is paint loss and crazing, as you would expect from a toy this age, but it is in otherwise nice shape. X240

This is a Schieble patrol truck. It has a single driver's seat up high and a step into back area. It is a non powered version and no signs that it ever had a flywheel. The toy is just under 12 inches long. There is paint loss. There is some bending with the worse on the right headlight and left side of the rear step. The bed does have a bend in it. N433

This is a fire pumper fire truck made by Schieble. It has the thin flywheel which does work OK when everything is lined up properly. It has a single driver hole but no driver with it anymore. It is missing the top of the tank. There is some normal light bending. Where the rear wheels run on the body there is heavy loss of paint and almost polishing from the wheels rubbing on it. There is a little bit of rusting on the right side of the cab. The wooden piece wobbles around but doesn't come off. N273

This is a late Schieble fire pumper truck. This one was sold by JC Penney and has the Little Jim logo on the seat. This style was never powered. It is about 20" long. The fire hose I believe is a replacement, and the spool might be also. There is a spot weld on the right front fender that may be newer. The rear step panel is no longer welded on the left side. The left front back of the hood has a bit of a ripple to it though I think it may be original. There is some paint loss and light rusting here and there. The 2 slots in the hood I have never seen anything actually there. M462

This is a Hillclimber Parcel Post car. This is a fairly rare body style, which has a narrow rear seat area and a large cargo region in the front. It is about 13" long. The flywheel system does work somewhat. The front axle to wheel connection is loose, so those wheels like to flop around. It used to have small fenders coming from the running board, which are gone. It is also missing the cargo box roof. There is some paint loss throughout. On the left side you can see the "Parcel Post" imprint, it is very faint to unreadable on the right side. N194

This is a Schieble Hillclimber Touring Car. It is about 13" long and 5" tall. It has the Schieble six-wheel system with a think flywheel, which does kind of work. There is some bending, mostly on the fenders, and some wear to the paint. The nose panel is smooth, and there is some inconsistencies to rust in that region. I almost think it might be a replacement, but it was done well. M589

This is a Mason Parker Auto Dray. It was made in Winchendon Massachusetts and has a weighted flywheel with a gear drive system. It has pressed steel body and seat and a wood base. The sides are stenciled with a litho like background. The right side is a bit faded. There is some paint loss. The steering wheel and shaft may be a replacement. The gear on the flywheel has some wear so it does not work well. K560

This is a Schieble open roadster Hillclimber. This one measures about 13" long and features a 2nd rear axle to power it. The Hillclimber mechanism, like most this style, does not work very well. There is heavy paint loss and there is more paint flaking off as it gets handled. The yellow detail paint is actually very decent. This is a good example to show the lack of prep before they were painted. M471
