Earlier today I couldn’t believe my eyes when I found this wooden toy army Jeep at a local charity shop, priced at $2. Unless I’m mistaken, toys like this were made towards the end of the war by and for occupying Allied soldiers to give to local kids at Christmas. This one goes great with the child’s size Canadian army uniform I have that was made for a Dutch kid!
That jeep looks great with the kid's Canadian uniform. Now if only our two countries could get together like that again, LOL!
I was just given the history of this toy by a Dutch historian. My Jeep has the Diamond / Made in Belgium mark. So happy!
