Elegant Two Seat Surrey Iron Toy
By Pratt & Letchworth Company. Buffalo, NY - Circa 1890 - 15" Long. Collectors largely agree that Pratt & Letchworth produced some of the finest and most attractive carriage toys ever made. Their acute attention to detail often imbues their carriage toys with a visual verisimilitude attained by no other manufacturer. For example, in this surrey toy, Pratt & Letchworth has accurately portrayed the carriage resting upon its open airy springboard chassis. One can almost imagine it bouncing up and down as it rolls over the bumps and potholes in the road.
Condition: Near Mint Condition & Bright.
