Toy Truck: Near Fine Yonezawa US Air Force Missile Tin Truck and Launcher From 1956. Rare vintage Yonezawa US Air Force missile tin truck and launcher from the mid 1950’s. True to that era, the toy was manufactured with a white painted tin grill rather than chrome. Tin bumpers, headlights, signal lights, hood insignia, door handles, and side view mirror. The ramp raises and the extension folds open for launching or folds to close with ramp lowered for driving. The tin litho cab interior is bright and clear. The truck is well maintained for its age, the paint is still rich and shiny with very few scratches and some oxidation, most notably the side mirror. This vintage Air Force truck would make an incredible display by itself or as part of a tin toy or military collection. Length: 11" (truck alone); 12" (including ramp folded); 17" (fully extended). Width: 4.5". Height: 7" (with launch ramp closed). Missile not included. Estimated Value $75 - 300
