Cardboard Records – Swingy by Mattel

Swingy
Swingy (1)

Swingy, 1969, from Mattel toymakers and Auravision. Swingy was the “swinginest doll around.” Is that safe?

Some more toy trucks. The Lazy Daisy Farms lift truck is from Mexico, I think. The Stucto cattle truck I played with a lot as a kid. I don’t remember the trailer.

A much loved Tonka truck from my childhood. I always thought these Cab-over-engine (COE) van-pick-up things were cool.

Tonka Toys-Tonka Farms Horse Trailer

The trailer isn’t as crooked as that last picture makes it look. Someone added a flame sticker to the top. I love the wheels and white-wall tires. I almost gave this away to the Salvation Army a while back. I’m not sure why I didn’t. If anyone is interested in it, let me know. Or pick up Collectors Guide to Tonka Trucks, 1947-1963

I suppose I should scan the whole catalog, but haven’t gotten around to that yet. I do have more pages of another Star Wars Toy Catalog.
