    Wife's family was related to early mgm't of Marx toys. Her grandma had quite a collection.
    My wife has a Marx electric train set, O gauge. Marx stuff was neat, likely the Japanese tin toys were copies...

    Although Marx was a knockoff guy, too. He mostly copied German tin stuff.

  6. Found one! It's very dirty and has some pieces missing. The guy thinks he has the car, but couldn't find it then. But it's a start. 008.JPG 009.JPG

    I was given a "Big Bruiser" for Christmas in 1963.
    It was one of my best, and coolest Toys ever! :)
    I think I actually wore it out.....

  19. I used to have one of those drive-ins. Who knows what happened to most of our toys as kids. Thankful that I still have most of mine from my childhood.

    ^ I'm not sure if the little tin cars are the same style that came with the drive-in. I got 6 cars total, two of the others are Police cars (one is fender less!) and one is for the Fire Chief. Gary
