Circa 1950s: Feast your eyes on this gorgeous 18" Trade Mark Modern Toys 301 tin litho race car from Japanese toy giant Masudaya. In near mint condition with only very minor scratching, this large battery operated racer features a dynamic six color paint scheme and the sleek 1950s aerodynamic design modeled after the Indy race cars of the period. The car is signed on the underside, the clean battery compartment takes three C batteries (not included), and the car was fully functional when tested. A nicer example would be extemely difficult to find.
