powerrabbit Posted March 22, 2007 Author Share Posted March 22, 2007 I'd have a look at again at the Britains one pw they are not at all alike, unless you mean a different one ? No, you are right. It could be Benbros. In Ramsey's catalogue I have found a reference that says 'former Timpo horse-drawn roller plus drawbar, yellow'. Benbros 'Qualitoys', (larger scale) introduced about 1955. How is it that with these subjects we always seem to stir up a real hornets nest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BGU Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 I remember buying that dairy cart with my pocket money. I also remember smashing it up with a hammer when I was a bit older. Please don't tell me how much it would be worth now!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lady Ferguson Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 This is a 1960s Britains Milk Float with plastic horse, milkman and churns: And this is a 1950s Britains Lilliput 00 gauge version in lead: This is a farmer's cart with the correct lightweight carriage horse: And this is a Britains Plough Set: Hope you all find these of interest, but my apologies if not - I am a part-time horse-bore, I'm afraid!

super6 Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 This topic could go on and on. I forgot I had these later models from the 1960s. 1972 I see you have a boxed cart on rubber tyres, 9502, is that the box it came in? as I have never come across a boxed example. I always assumed that it would come in a similar box with a picture of a cart with tyres on it! Does it have Farm cart 9502 on the end flap?

Well spotted super6 I didn't notice that, the box shows the spoked wheels yet the cart has rubber ones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi 1972, not these ones but the plastic era ones from the 60's, the pink box with green cart body; cream chassis; red wheel centres and brown cob.

No worries '72 , thought I'd worked out why I cannot find a boxed cart on rubber tyres from the 950- series in that box style Anyone else got a boxed one, in that style Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
