Amazing American folk art, circa 1920's, handmade truck barn-fresh from Lancaster County! Original, dry Green and Yellow paint with painted oilcoth roof.  Very large, measuring approx 32"L x 12"W x 18"H and weighing 16 lbs.  A true, Amish/Mennonite working-farm find, some great folk art pieces were discovered including squirrel houses, model barns, and another large vehicle which I sold a few weeks ago to a very happy customer (the blue model-T).  Examples this size are very rare.  There are cracks and losses, dirt & dust.  Headlights are missing (see pic 9), and a broken propeller on front (see pics 10-11) which appears to have been mechanically operated using a small pulley system hanging from above the rear window (see pic 18).  Two large eye hooks in the front suggest it may have been a pull toy.   This will require a large box with plenty of room for padding, so please take a look at the available shipping options to see which one suits you best.  Thanks for your interest and please ask any questions you may have.
