Tonka 1962 Dragline Pressed Steel Crane *SOLD*
Tonka 1962 Dragline Pressed Steel Crane For Sale
Our big yellow and black crane comes to us from its original owner. Â There were some smudges and dust, but it cleaned up superbly. Â The paint, rubber, and even the draglines are original and nearly new.
Condition is excellent with some minor chipping to the rear of the crane cab. Â The dragline has extremely fine chipping at the tip of the bucket, otherwise it is near new. Â Treads are supple. Â Stickers are excellent and original. Â Its condition is better than 99% we have seen before.
We were impressed with how fun this was to pose and photograph. Â Everything works as it should and its ready for the next generation of owner.
Historic Tonka fun fact:
The logo was based on a University of Minnesota drafting student’s sketch by Donald B. Olson, who later became the company’s chief industrial engineer. Â The logo used the Dakota Sioux word tanka, which means “great” or “big”.
