Description: This lot includes an original early 20th century Buddy "L" Arial Ladder Fire Truck with extending ladder. All of the levers move as smooth as to be expected, however the string that pulls the extensions up is missing.

Condition: The truck impressively maintains its original paint and decals. While it does exhibit some surface wear and minor loss of paint, these conditions are entirely consistent with the piece's antique / vintage nature. Overall, the truck remains in an overall good condition for it's age. A visual inspection shows no signs of rust beyond slight surface rust where paint is missing.

Measurements: 38"L x 9"W x 9.54"T
