This is a Keystone Wood Toys Snap Button Truck #230 produced in the 1950’s. It appears in the 1954, 1956 and 1957 catalogs. All of the parts snap together to make three different trucks. The truck is all wood construction with rubber wheels. The trailer measures 7.5 inches long and the cab is 6 inches when built.
From my private collection.
I was born in 1980…today is actually my 43rd birthday. So I have never even seen this type of toy that snaps together like this, but I absolutely love the idea. Did kids love this toy back when it came out? Did you love it? I am into woodworking andI might just have to make something similar to this just because it seems like it would be awesome! I know I would’ve loved to have played with this truck. Thank you for sharing your private collection.
Hello Nay,
These toys came out well before I was born so I never played with them. The snap button toys always fascinated me for their simplicity. If you did not see it I also have a Snap Button Choo Choo.
