January 28th woods hunt

[giant056]

Met my brother at the same woods as yesterday, I managed to find me a possible entry to the toy contest, according to what I've researched on the net it's made in the 40's. It's not a Tootsietoy either it's a Manoil.

Thanks for all the great replies everyone thumbsup01 I'm going to go hunting for hopefully a cast iron toy today and who knows just maybe, that park/woods that I've been hunting has been there since 1900 so it's possible there is a cast iron toy there somewhere plus the place has been hammered so hard that the coin finds are far and few between(however my brother did manage to score a wheat on this hunt).
