Throughout the rest of the 1920s Buddy L toys would grow leaps
and bounds, as its rugged buddy l toys were much larger than
those of cast-iron competitors such as Hubley, were ordered by
such prestigious retailers as FAO Schwarz and Marshall Field.

short-lived The Great Depression devastated sales, but it was
Lundahl's death in 1933 at the age of 41 that put the greatest
pressure on Buddy L co. and inevitably sold The new

Besides, it's not as if the quality of Buddy L trucks from the
1930s was dreadful—dump trucks from that decade had
working, Buddy L Fire Truck, Buddy L Truck Value,
and the tailgate was carefully hinged. Rubber covered the
wheels, the doors to the cab opened and closed, and the
steering wheel turned the front wheels. Kingsbury Toys
Part of the secret to the toy's endurance was its baked-enamel
finish, which helped prevent the pressed steel from rusting. Buddy L Toys were strong enough for a male adult to sit on,
making play that much more realistic. In addition to the dump
truck, Buddy L also made a Buddy L Lumber truck, Buddy L wrecker on turntable featuring working pulleys, cranks.
Equally detailed was the Buddy L pile driver whose roof was
made of corrugated pressed steel 1920's Buddy L bus

on caterpillar tracks like the Buddy L steam shovel featured a
crank at the back of the toy that would children actually dig a
trench removing dirt as the Buddy L was pushed forward. 1920's
