Louis Marx 1953 Home Video

• CATEGORIES: Features, toys, videos This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Apparently, Toy King Louis Marx not only made toy jeeps, but also owned a jeep he used to cut his lawn. In this unusual home video being auctioned on eBay, it apparently shows him driving a Lefty CJ-2A with some kind of mower or cutter behind it.

“We are proud to offer:
“The Marx of History” a home birthday movie made for toymaker Louis Marx by his family in 1953.
This lot consists of :
One 16mm film on to 2 rolls
Run time: circa one hour
Type: black and white, silent
Recently found in the archives of Academy Award winning producer Jerry Fairbanks one 16mm home movie for the 1953 birthday of Toy King Louis Marx. This black and white silent work print of the Hollywood producer appears to be the only surviving copy of this 1953 film.
The film is in good condition with moderate signs of use.
By all appearance mostly filmed on the grounds of the Scarsdale Estate and Mansion, this film shows the luxurious life style enjoyed by the family of the at the time largest Toymaker in the World.
This film was put together by his family as a birthday gift to Louis Marx on the occasion of his 57 birthday in 1953.”

1942 GPW Albany, NY **SOLD**

• CATEGORIES: GPW (Ford MB) This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay

It is a project.

“You are bidding on an early script 1942 Ford GPW with a low serial number,  under 8000 which makes it very rare.  It is one of the few produced GPW on Willys frame.  The vin on the frame matches the original data tag on glove box door.  The frame is in excellent condition with original front gussets sill in place as well as the original rear crossmember.   Original early axles are still on the jeep.  The correct hood with an early style lube chard holder bracket is in place.  The grill is also the correct flat top grill specific to the early jeeps.  Original reflectors are also still there as well as the original script bumperettes.  The engine bay is very complete with the exception of the voltage regulator.  Most of the top bow brackets and grab handles are still on the jeep with original script bolts.  Even the original style hood blocks are still in place.  Jeep does have some rust in the usual places but is can be restored.  I recommend that all interested parties come see the jeep in person before placing a bid.  I do have a title for the jeep.  If you are looking for a great project this is it.  I also have a few NOS parts that will go with the jeep such as lights , blackouts etc.”
