We have for your consideration, this vintage tin San Francisco cable car replica friction toy in its origianl box.  The friction toy is 6" long x 2 3/8" wide x 3 1/2" tall.  The  cable car features a brightly colored body and simulated passengers in 1940's or early 50's style clothing. Other graphics on the cable car include '514 Powell & Mason StS.  San Francisco Cable Car.'  The box indicates it is Made In Japan and the logo is a stylized 'E.'  The bell does work as does the friction element. This vintage tin toy has some scratches in the painted finish and the box shows edge wear.  The overall condition of each is is very good.

Welcome International Customers!

We welcome international customers whenever the item qualifies for international shipping.  We have successfully shipped to over 60 countries.  Here are a few things we have learned:

Even though we ship within 24 hours, shipping to some countries can take a couple of weeks.  Once the item arrives in your country's customs, they can hold the item as long as they want to. In some isolated cases, this has been as long as 4-6 weeks. Please understand that this is a possibility.

If the item weighs less than 4 pounds, there are two options for shipping: First Class International is a low cost shipping method, but it does not offer tracking. If you want to be able to track the item, you need to request Priority Mail International. This option is more expensive, but allows you to follow the progress of your package.  When the item is over 4 pounds, Priority Mail International is the only option available. 

Please note: Import duties, taxes and charges are not included in the item price or shipping cost.  These charges are the buyer's responsibility.  Please check with your country's customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding or buying.  We will not under-value merchandise or mark the item as a gift on customs forms.  Doing so is against U.S. and international laws.
