Vintage Tonka Trucks

On September 18, 1946, Mound Metalcraft was created in Mound Minnesota more commonly known as Tonka Toys today.  These 3 partners set out and created a timeless piece of toy history. No matter if your 3 or 103 these toys are coveted by children and collectors.


Hunting down rare Tonka gems is getting more and more difficult.  The collector market is always hot for pressed steel trucks.  Some of my favorites are from the 50's and 60's but every now and then some really cool looking ones from the 70's like this Tonka Green Bottom Dump from 1974-75 come to market.
You can visit this truck here--> Mighty Tonka Bottom Dump.
