Vintage 1930s Kenton Hardware Co. Cast Iron Cart Driver Two Horses Metal Toy
It's hard to believe that this gorgeous piece of industrial craftsmanship and artistry was once manufactured as a child's toy. Such is the case for this 1930s Kenton Hardware Co. Cast Iron Cart! Though age is somewhat evident on its surface, the original bright green, red, white and black are intact with the gold details still shining. The two horses and driver will continue riding through the decades, but now be admired as sculptural history!
