c.1960's half track recon truck. Military toys have been a deep interest for me since childhood. This is a really nice and clean item. Wheels and axels are all in great shape and the half track rolls easily when pushed across the floor.
42 years old, and yes, I still get on the floor and play with my toys. lol

Nice piece. Back when I was a kid in the 50's, I had a lot of the rubber toys. I had the same exact one as you but mine was dark green. It's a keeper!
Thanks dennis for the kind words. Mine is actually darker green then appears in picture (not sure how that happened) and thanks for the info. I thought this was a 60's toy. but I had an idea it was a little older.
Pop, you should train your animals better and stop trying to destroy toys someone else probably paid for. The negative banter isnt necessary nor wanted. I notice you tend to do this quite a bit. Maybe your posts should be deleted.
Back again; as an Ebay Seller, I do a lot of research on various items. That I enjoy so I took a few minutes to surf around for Auburn Rubber Toys. Did not find your Halftrack but quite a few others. A lot were the same ones I had as a kid. I did find some info that Auburn went out of business in 1959. I'm sure there's more interesting info and pics out there. Enjoy, John
Thats cool that you spent the time looking at others and getting back to me with what you found. Thanks so very much!
