    Picked up an old die cast car from the Bay of E. Manufactured by "It's a Beaut". I've never heard of them, wonder if any of y'all might know something about the company and date it was made. Looks like a late 30's-40's type car to me. The only other items made by the company on the Bay are the same car or taxi/police versions. I got it cheap to see if it would fit my Hubley Auto Transport and by gum by golly it's a perfect fit. I think plastic 50's Cadillacs were the original load, but I love deco cars. Appreciate any info on It's a Beaut.
    Thanks,
    Rebel Bill

      Great find and rare piece! This Company operated in New Jersey only between the 1930´s and the late 1940´s, the models like yours (not taxis or police cars), are even less common.
