Vintage Frankonia Friction Tank, with cap gun action, Made in Japan. "Thunderbolt" and "U.S.A. - 4U" on sides. Cute for the vintage tin toy collector, the military toy collector, the tank collector, or the cap gun collector. ***PLEASE NOTE: Missing one wheel underneath the front.
CONDITION: ***Missing one wheel. Paint looks nice, shiny for age. A few tiny dings- nothing huge there. Has some old cap gun tape in it- accidentally got it to fire once (when I FIRST picked it up- before I knew it would fire- 'bout droped it). Not really sure how it works.. Some rust spots- mostly to the area where it is marked "CAP ACTION." Please see photos, email if you'd like more.
From my smoke free home. Check Mendozam's Booth for more great vintage and antique toys. I love old tin, and usually have a few extras for sale.
