Paya Windup Tin Motorcycle Toy For Sale

We get the feeling of “Impressionism” when viewing this toy and describing it.  Original Paya Toys of Spain are a rare treat.  Then to see this original is a treat.

Colors are muted.  Lines are softened.  Everything is a pleasant blur or impression of the real steel sharp life object.  Our toy is soothing, small, and pleasant.  There is not a gun like the German versions.  There aren’t loud sounds or angular pressings; just simplicity.

Paya Alicante, Spain

Specialty: Tin clockwork and steam motor toys; also “O” gauge model railroads. A pioneer of the Spanish toy industry, tinsmith Rafael PAYÁ, produced his first metal toy, a hand-painted horse drawn coach, in 1902. The firm PAYÁ Hermanos S.A. (PAYÁ Brothers S.A.) built the first toy factory in Ibi, Alicante, Spain and began producing toys in 1906. The metal toys were well received and PAYÁ quickly produced a wide range of toys for the domestic market, being the first serious Spanish rival to imported toys
