Name Holgate #610 "Circus Wagon", type I, no pegs or ball






Catalog ID HCM4467
Year circa 1938
Description Early Circus Wagon, with simple elephant theme and thin, contoured red wheels with steel screw hubs. Yellow, with three interconnected blue elephants on each side. About 5% of what appears to be a Type 4b (dt4b) decal on the back. Tri-colored pull string missing the ball. No pegs. Some wear, especially to wheels.

This was produced as early as 1936, but I expect it is 1938 based on the decal.
