Hey all, I found this little cast iron piece under an old house. The people wouldn't let me probe or dig in their yard but allowed me to crawl under house. Well it's better than nothing.

Nice find Kim! I've been wanting to crawl under some houses but have no idea how to go about that. On another note I believe I have one of the reproductions of your ice wagon.

Hey, Kim...That is a great piece...I would love to dig that. Way to go, a keeper for sure. Toy collectors are always looking for that stuff. That's an old one.

Hey all, Thanks for the input, I didn't even think it would be worth anything. It goes to show you that you just never know. What was so great about it, I didn't even have to dig for it. It was lying under the concrete steps.
I dont' mind u posting the pic when I did it I forgot to hit embed it.
thanks
Kim

You can see why people would want to collect these, it is pretty neat. Hey Kim, make sure you don't mess with the original finish (outside of a mild cleaning). Collectors will want the old paint even if it is rusty or flaky.

Hi diggincjun; I took note of this one then had to go out of town. Now I am back, I am impressed with this old toy. Have you decided what your going to do with it? RED M.
