One of my main collections in diecast is Tootsietoys, thought I'd post a pic now and then, keep the group going and maybe generate some Tootsietoy interest

Here's the first one

No 1045 Greyhound Bus, made from 1937-1941 with or without Tin Bottom, this one has a tin bottom

All original

Jut went to a 'big flea' market today at our convention center here in VA Beach.. lots of... wierd... stuff there. Among the vendors was this one guy that had a ton of old tootsie cars, and i think this was one of the ones he had. Didn't have any of the old oldsmobiles so i didnt bother asking how much they were, but i have a feeling they were alot. Sad thang is, not many were in that nice of condition

nice old bus ,not many around in that kind of shape anymore.

Thanks for sharing that sweet bus with us Gerald. :thumbsup: I have a question for you, are those white tires metal or hard rubber?Thanks.

I think those are rubber.

These tires are hard rubber, but there were some made with wood too

That's so cool! I'm going to keep an eye out for some Tootsietoys from now on when I go flea market hunting.

Thanks for all the great pictures of them!
