Item Description
13" long cast iron oil tanker truck by Arcade Mfg. Co. (as marked on underside, along w/"4M" designation), 1925. Each side of cab has raised "Mack" name. Tank has "Webaco Oil Co." name of Rochester, NY. oil company painted on both sides while bed has "Webaco Fuel Oil" text painted on as issued. Complete w/nickel-plated cast iron driver figure. Replaced tires. Truck has all-over aging but small degree of paint wear, mainly along edges and at corners. Majority of original paint remains. Rear cap on tanker has tabs broken off, but this was done at time of production as broken pieces covered in original yellow paint. Fine overall. Very limited private label truck, more rare than generic Arcade trucks of this style.
