VINTAGE 1920'S KANSAS Slush TOY KTV23

SEPARATOR-THRESHER C6

A Toy so Ugly, Only a Mother Could Love

I purchased this toy a few weeks ago. It's called a thresher and was used to harvest wheat. It's one of the machines that help make America "the breadbasket of the world" back a long time ago. It's a slush toy made of an alloy that's poured into a casting. The molten metal is swirled around or "slushed" inside the casting and begins to stick to the casting. The excess is poured out through a hole.

Sometimes, I'll purchase toys that I know may be hard to sell, and this may be in fact one of them.

I joked about his toy being "ugly", but it's actually beautiful. For such a small toy, it has plenty of detail. It's lost all of its red colour, but still is in very good condition.

Because it's something that I haven't seen on E-Bay, I decided to buy it.
