Wagner toy real and possible value?

[Janis Berzins]

Hey there picked this up and I don't know much about it. Blue book has it at around 35-50, but it doesn't seem to me to be worth that much. Any ideas would be helpful.

Hello Janis. Is it cast iron or is it aluminum? The book values are just a guide at best. I'd like to buy a whole lot of things at book price. And I'd like to also sell a lot of things at book price. The books certainly have their place. And I have every one that I can lay my hands on because they are interesting and very informative. So I don't put a lot of stock in book prices, most of the time anyway. Tell us what your piece is there and we can give you some prices. Nice find.  :)

Thanks Perry, it's aluminum.

Thanks Perry, it's aluminum.

IMO its worth between 25 and 35 dollars.

Thanks again Perry, that was a little closer to what I thought. I only have 18 in it, so I did okay. Interestingly the both I got it at had only really really overpriced items. This was sort of a fluke.
