Vintage 1950s SSS Tin Sand Gravel Side Dump Truck Trailer Toy

Description: I am no expert on vintage toys; I will do my best to describe what I know and see about this toy. Please view this description carefully and also view the listing pictures carefully. Also reach out with any questions. I would also be happy to send more pictures upon request. Here is what I think I see with the toy:1. it is missing a hitch pin- and it has a hole where the hitch pin used to be.2. Back of the trailer. Left side of the dump bin. The piece that holds this connection (from the dump bin to the trailer) is broken/disconnected. It is freely movable. But that is the only corner which this is broken in. all the other connections are fastened to the trailer. The pictures look like the right front has this same problem but it doesn't. It is more freely movable. But is connected. 3. Lastly one of the tires under the trailer is bent. The trailer still rolls and tires turn but it is bent. All these flaws, the paint scratches and some rust can be see on the listing photos. Please let me know if you have questions. This is still a great collectors item, despite these flaws it is a great vintage item. Length: 3 3/4" Width: 1 3/4" Height: 1 7/8" As with all my vintage toys- I say these have not been evaluated by today's safety standards for toys for children and their safety. I sell these vintage toys and recommend only using them for vintage display pieces and not for children's toys. This vintage SSS tin sand and gravel side dump truck trailer is a wonderful addition to any collection of vintage toys. Made in Japan in the 1950s, this toy is a rare find and perfect for anyone who appreciates vintage toys. The trailer is made of tin, and its intricate details and beautiful design make it a true collector's item. This side dump truck trailer was made by SSS, a company known for producing high-quality toys that are built to last. The toy has been well-preserved and is in played in good condition, making it a great gift for collectors or anyone who loves vintage toys. Its country of origin, Japan, and its vintage status add to its charm and make it a great conversation piece. Please view the pictures carefully with this listing as they are an important part of the description of the listing. I do my best to highlight the flaws of each item in the pictures as well as in the description. It is not my intention to deceive my buyers in any way on the purchase of the items, however it is the buyers responsibility to view the pictures carefully and read the items descriptions carefully. Please ask any questions you have and additional pictures can be sent upon request. I will have the same day or one day handling time on all orders so you will get your items sooner. (one day handling time is subject to weekdays and or holidays as the shipping locations hours for drop off.) Please know all my items come from a smoke free home. Please contact me with any questions have prior to bidding or making an offer. It is my intention to be as honest with the description of each item listed to establish: 1. repeat customers 2. buying satisfaction 3. positive feedback. I do list many vintage and used items which are sold in the items "as in" condition. The condition of the item will be described and pictured on the Ebay listing; so again; it is the buyers responsibility to read and view the pictures carefully so they know exactly what they are purchasing. I do not include batteries, or lightbulbs etc. with the items- unless included in the original, sealed manufactures packaging. Each item will be packaged very carefully as to arrive to buyer in the same condition as they left the seller. This will be the same condition the item was described/pictured in when it was listed for purchase on eBay. If damage occurs in shipping the item this damage can be taken up with the shipping service if insurance was purchased/included with the shipping service. (some insurance maybe included with the purchase price or shipping and/or additional insurance may be purchased upon request). Please contact the shipping service for damages that occur due to shipping of your item. Shipping - Items are shipped with recycled/reused packaging as much as possible. Unfortunately the cost of shipping has increased, so I strive to use the most reasonable/economical options to save the buyer money, which includes reusing shipping materials. However, I also am VERY meticulous about packaging your items, the recycling of packing is only done if it is quality materials. Please read my feedback (I wish all off my buyers left feedback about my meticulous packaging but please trust the buyers that do). I do not like receiving my eBay items in packages with little to no packing material, and I can understand that you would not like this as well. Since I also do sell some vintage very rare board games, Lego's and other fragile and/or vintage items which are not replaceable, I must ensure the items are packaged and shipped very carefully. Your (the buyers) satisfaction is extremely important to me. Customer service is my number one reason for returning a second time to a store, I want this to be your reason for returning to my eBay store as well.

Any item not in the original selling condition will not be eligible for returns. Items must be returned in 30 days if you feel the item was not represented correctly as stated above.

Most items I sell are vintage and although not an expert I do my best to describe all notable flaws and imperfections, and the items qualities.
