Humphrey Mobile by Wyandotte. I always liked the Joe Palooka comic strip and this was one of my favorite charcters from that strip. |

Rabbit pushing cart with easter egg by Chein. |

“Pioneer” train manufactured postwar Germany by Karl Bub. This train reminded me of the pre-war lithographed tin days. I knew I liked it when I first saw it. Did not know that it was a very scarce piece. I originally did not know the manufacturer and had to do a little digging to find out that it was Bub. My understanding is that Bub continued to make tinplate items instead of switching to plastic and found themselves in a non-competitive position which put them out of business. |

An Issmayer passenger coach. Although I greatly admire Issmayer’s products, my focus on Hess took priority. This is the only piece of Issmayer in my collection.
