The wheels usually went away on these by 1920. Someone made it prettier, or so they thought, by adding the paint. I can only hope it was damaged...
I'm always surprised when anything good is found in a Goodwill at this point. OTOH it was damaged. Only the small thrifts are worth the effort.
Huh. I've never seen any with only two colors, no matter how old it was. Should have known the Dutch would have to be different!
Nice! I can't seem to score gold here any more, so it's nice to see someone else do it.

Local auction. Selling online for something this heavy is a recipe for going backwards.
It may have been sitting in a back room. They do that sometimes. Glad you rescued them!
1.Welcome. 2. Despite what Google says we don't normally do values on the site. There's too much variation depending on location and condition....
