I have a feeling these might be Citroens. Citroen made models like this...

and they were sold at dealerships. Very nice too!

I think they are pressed steel Citroens, not diecast.

Great picture, Jerry. It was discussed tonight at the meeting of the Carolina Toy

Collectors. One member suggests the manufacturer of the steel vehicles was Marklin, based largely on the fire truck. A few of our group volunteered to meet the young lady, who is probably today just about their ages. Thanks for giving us moments of good fun!

I think the young lady may be Andre Citroen's daughter
