One of my favourite MOBO SULKY metal pedal toy 1950's

Restored this Mobo 'Sulky' pedal toy, they were really over-engineered and should last forever.
Made by D. Sebel and Co. in the 1950/60's.
Following the war the company had to switch to other products to keep the firm alive and they chose metal toys and furniture.
probably the best known toy they produced was the Mobo Bronco, a toy horse that the rider could propel by bouncing up and down on the saddle and the articulated legs would spring outwards and then back. The wheels in the hooves could only rotate forwards therefore the horse moved forward with each bounce.
They made these and many other metal toys from the 40's until 1972.
I restore as many Mobo toys I can get my hands on as I just love the engineering built into them and these toys will never be made again to this standard.
Unfortunately a lot of them are just left to rust away in the garden or a shed.
