Item Overview
Description:
Politoys Bedford Personnel Truck #4
The company began as Politoys APS about 1960, and started production of 100 plastic cars in 1:41 scale. As the 1960s progressed, some models were produced in fiberglass – tougher than the plastic and less prone to warping. Following trends set by fellow Italian trailblazer Mercury, and Corgi Toys, Dinky Toys, Norev, and Solido, the company changed over to diecast metal vehicles in 1964 or 1965.
